Falling In Love By Wandering Around Rome. The Residenza is located in the center of the city and close to all major attractions in Rome: historical ruins, churches, museums, parks, and shopping districts. This ancient neighborhood, named Regola, has some pedestrian cobble-street areas where genuine old Romans rub shoulders with movie stars and artists. Many residents shops at the local market in Campo de Fiori which has been there for centuries. Many stores are owned by families and they are passed on to the next generation: the Roscioli bakery and the Restaurant are examples of this continuity. From Campo de Fiori you cross a street and you are in Piazza Navona: one of the most beautiful piazzas in Italy. At night, the city takes on a different atmosphere and becomes crowded with busy bars and restaurants. This is an area with many good restaurants as well as excellent food and wine stores. At the Residenza, though, you will be blessed to stay and sleep in a secluded street, removed from noise and bustle. Trastevere, on the other side of the Tiber river, offers also many hangouts and restaurants. It houses what's probably the best gelato place in the entire city: otaleg, close to Piazza San Cosimato, where they show movies in the piazza in the summertime. In order to escape the bustle of the area, you can cross Viale Trastevere and walk to the other side of the neighborhood: quieter and with fewer people around. It houses the church of Santa Cecilia and that peculiar atmosphere reminiscent of a small town in the countryside. You cross the Tiber again, and you end up on the Isola Tiberina: an islet in the middle of the river that is house to a church, a hospital, and a restaurant. The island is shaped like a ship and it used to host the sick people in the old days. You continue walking toward the Centro area, crossing the river, and you are in the ancient Jewish ghetto of Rome: the Synagogue, the local food, the tiny community that's been holding together for millennia. Around the small Jewish Ghetto, you find Piazza Mattei, also known as Turtle Square for its beautiful fountain decorated with a turtle motif. A few steps further and you hit the ancient Roman Teatro Marcello and the "Bocca della Verità", where Audrey Hepburn put her hand in the mouth of a statue. It takes less than one hour or more than 3 days to see the surroundings of la Residenza.

Lose yourself in the beautiful alleys of this district, located between the Lungotevere and the famous Via Giulia!

After seeing Campo de' Fiori, walk the lovely streets of Via dei Capellari and Via del Pellegrino, preferably during business hours when people are at work in their shops and workshops, before lunch is the best time. Then cross over to the area of Rione di Ponte, and walk the Via del Governo Vecchio and Via dei Coronari, and all the small streets surrounding them. A beautiful part of Rome!
