The Lazio region
WHY LAZIO? • Rome • Hadrians Villa (completed in 134 AD) • The fountains and gardens of Villa DEste • Vineyards of Frascati • Tombs of Tarquinia, founded in 12th century BC • Easy access to the cruise ship port at Civitavecchia
Lazio, birthplace of two of mankind’s greatest institutions, the Roman Empire and the Catholic Church, is dominated and largely defined by its capital, Rome. Since ancient Roman times the region has been an extension of the city, where noble Roman families created their own towns and the wealthy built their villas in the surrounding countryside. Lazio is a treasure trove of the remains of age old civilizations: bridges, churches, towers, villas, monasteries, aqueducts, arches — the list is endless. To the north of Rome are Etruscan sites and the tombs of Tarquinia, founded in the 12th century BC. The ruins of Ostia Antica, a 4th century BC port city at the mouth of the Tiber are located west of the city, with delightful beaches nearby. East of Rome toward the mountains is Tivoli, a favourite retreat for the wealthy at the height of the Roman Empire. Visit the remains of Hadrian’s Villa, completed in 134 AD, and the beautiful fountains and gardens of the Villa d’Este.
The cooking of Lazio reflects the influence of three important groups. The Jews settled in the Trastevere area of Rome two thousand years ago and have contributed a vast number of recipes, including carciofi alla giudea (deep-fried artichokes); mullet with raisin and pine nuts, served cold as a Sabbath dish; and endives with anchovies. The influence of the bordering region of Abruzzo is seen in pasta dishes like bucatini all’amatriciana, thick spaghetti with bacon and tomato sauce; spaghetti alla carbonara, with beaten eggs, Parmesan and cubes of bacon; and in numerous lamb specialties, such as abbacchio, roasted baby lamb with garlic and rosemary. The tradition of the quinto quarto, a legacy of Rome’s slaughterhouse workers, created a wealth of dishes based on organ meats, such as coda alla vaccinara, an oxtail and wine stew, and rigatoni con la pajata, slow cooked lamb meats in a tomato sauce. While stracciatella, an egg drop soup made with chicken broth is the region’s most famous, other specialties include pasta with lentils or broccoli; saltimbocca, veal cutlets topped with sage, prosciutto and mozzarella; and artichokes alla Romana, with mint, parsley and garlic. Pizza rustica, thick crusted with simple toppings, is a popular street food. Sweets include wine-based ciambellette, a ring shaped cookie; sweet fava beans, often served with Pecorino Romano, a slightly salty cheese; and torta di ricotta, a sweet ricotta pie. Lazio’s wines include Frascati, Est! Est!! Est!!!, Fiorano and Aleatico di Gradoli.
Rome / La Pisana area
Rome, with its sun drenched ruins, its remarkable architecture, and its bounty of religious art, has been delighting visitors for centuries. A city with a millennial history, there is no street or square that does not show traces of events and civilizations long past: Etruscan, imperial, medieval, Renaissance, Baroque. There are medieval churches built over early Christian religious sites which in turn rest atop Roman palaces. Contemporary buildings incorporate parts of Roman columns or fragments of carvings or inscriptions into their structures. Although classical Rome is most visible in the vestiges of its most imposing monuments — the Colosseum, the Forum and the temples and palaces of the Palatine Hill—its influence can also be seen in the layout of the city: streets and piazzas follow the lines of classical amphitheaters and stadiums. For example, the elegant Piazza Navona, one of the gathering points for Romans, is lined with Baroque palaces and showcases Bernini’s masterpiece, the “Fountain of the Rivers;” sit was once the Stadium of Domitian, where sports and chariot races took place! Although the look of the central city is primarily defined by the Baroque period, one can find Renaissance palaces, medieval churches, Rococo fountains, and modern structures within a few paces of each other. Elegant shops, parks and gardens, restaurants and sidewalk cafes all add to the enjoyment of this vibrant city.
ATTICO AURELIA ANTICA is situated only 5 km from St. Peter's and the Vatican City, in a nice, safe, residential area called Aurelio, with all kinds of shops, 2 supermakets, an open-air market, bars and restaurants. This is in the western part of Rome, near the Janiculum and Villa Pamphili. By walking through this beautiful park you arrive to Trastevere. Nearby you can choose between 3 different swimmings pools, and Rome's biggest Water Fun Park is only a short busride away. Bus nr. 881 or 98 brings you directly to the historical centre of Rome. Nearest bus stop at 200 meters.
It's said that all roads lead to Rome but let me add that if you need a break from the hectic pace of the city, only 15 min away, they surely lead to Attico Aurelia Antica in Via dei Brusati 33!!!
How to get there
From Ciampino or Fiumicino airport: Special agreement can be arranged with a Limoservice, an English-speaking driver brings you to the apartment for €45 (a small extra if you need a larger car).
By car: From Grande Raccordo Anulare take Exit 1 and head towards "Roma Aurelio Città del Vaticano", turning right on Via Aurelia. After 2,5 km turn right: Largo Tommaso Perassi and continue along Via Aurelia Antica After 0,9 km turn right: Largo Don Luigi Guanella and immediately right again: Via del Fontanile Arenato After 0,7 km turn left: Via degli Alidosi and you'll find Via dei Brusati 33 just in front of you!
Public transport from Stazione Termini (main railway station): Bus H until the last stop Via Capasso or Metro A direction Battistini. Get off at Cornelia and take bus 892 to Largo Don Guanella.
The apartments are located less than 5 km from St. Peter's and the historical centre, and is easily reached bus bus 881 or 98. The nearest Metro A station is Cornelia/Baldo degli Ubaldi.

Guestbook for Attico Aurelia Antica
Recommended! JulieBR Oslo, Norway Review Submitted: February 12, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2007 "My husband, my one-year-old son and myself stayed here for a week in September 2007. The apartment is VERY nice, it is even better than in the pictures, and usually it is the other way around... The apartment is clean, delicate, appears as new and has probably the best roof terrace in Rome with a 365 degree view of Rome. We used the roof terrace every day, either for breakfast, lunch or relaxing in the sun after a day in busy Rome - perfect and very delicately furnished!
The apartment is situated 10 minutes from the city centre. The bus stop is just down the road, and it takes you to St.Peters church or downtown. Or you can catch a cab to the city centre for app 10 €. It is also a nice bar just outside the door where you can get your Italian coffee and lovely cakes for breakfast and really nice sandwiches etc for lunch. Next door to the bar is the local store where you can buy your bread, the best parma, vine and so on. There are also many shops nearby, so you do not need to go downtown to do your shopping if you do not want to. There are many restaurants in the neighbourhood, very practical for us with a one-year-old, to stay in the local area at night. The restaurants were really nice, with something for every taste. And there is a whole different feeling to dine out with only Romans, compared to only tourists downtown....
Hanne, the landlord, was very nice and helpful. She gave us tips on restaurants, shopping, where to go, arranged limo-service to and from the airport (recommended!) and helped us with whatever we needed (even toys and a crib for my son). The neighbourhood was very nice, and is was surprisingly quiet at night. I have recommended this apartment to all my friends and family and would definitely stay there again!"

Great Apartment, Wonderful Host anywherebutithaca New York, United States Review Submitted: May 20, 2009 Date of Stay: January 2009 My wife and I rented the studio apartment for 9 nights in January. This was the first holiday rental of our first trip to Europe and by far the best. We were greeted by our (multi-lingual) hostess, who was very kind, informative about everything Rome, and made herself available without being intrusive. Wireless internet and a library of guidebooks were invaluable. The apartment was well equipped and comfortable for the two of us. I highly recommend this rental and hope to return for a future stay.

Via dei Brusati Villa Lante Finland Review Submitted: May 17, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009 The neighbourhood is quiet and non-touristic. The studio itself is nice and clean, suitable for two. It has everything you need: a well-equipped kitchenette, a balcony and a spacious bathroom with good supply of hot water. An extra advantage is the terrace on the top floor. We also appreciated the safety provided by the thick door and good lock.
The owner is very friendly and the service works with Nordic-standard punctuality.
We warmly recommend this apartment. Recommended for: Girls Getaway, Tourists without a Car, Romantic Getaway, Sightseeing
We will come back Per-ola Sweden Review Submitted: May 10, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2008 Very nice apartment with two outstanding terraces. The apartment is fully equipped with everything you need (and a little bit more) including a wireless internet (you have to bring your own computer). The apartment is clean and we got a lot of help with everything we needed. It was almost like having your own personal tourist guide. Don’t miss to bye your breakfast at the local shops in the neighbourhood. It’s very easy to travel by bus into the centre of Rome. The airport shuttle service that was provided was highly appreciated and really cheap.
We will definitely coming back Per-Ola with family Recommended for: Families with Teenagers, Families with Young Children, Age 55+, Girls Getaway, Tourists without a Car, Romantic Getaway, Sightseeing
