Things to do in Rome, Lazio: The Best Neighborhoods
Rome wasn't built in a day--and you'll need much more than a day to take in this timeless city. The city is a real-life collage of piazzas, open-air markets, and astonishing historic sites. Toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain, contemplate the Colosseum and the Pantheon, and sample a perfect espresso or gelato before spending an afternoon shopping at the Campo de’Fiori or Via Veneto. Enjoy some of the most memorable meals of your life here, too, from fresh pasta to succulent fried artichokes or a tender oxtail stew.

This historical Jewish Ghetto dates back to 1555, when Pope Paul IV restricted all Jews to a small area of the city, which was then walled in. Today, the ghetto has wonderful eating places with cross-cultural dishes, and a beautiful synagogue with a small museum inside.

This is a part of Rome many miss only a stone throw from Circus Maximus and St Peters. The oldest Synagogue in Rome . With the only Square Cuppola Very interesting museum showing the history of Jewish life in Rome. Then the food only place to find the Jewish Pizza. Actually it is a fruit cake and the Artichoke al la Giuda found only her. The Jewish Pizza is found in a small bakery at the end of the street. Those wanting to see an alternative side of Rome minus the tourists, also sit in one of the several Jewish Restuarants and enjoy a meal. Its worth the side trip

We have already seen the big sights in Rome and were searching for hidden gems. If you are into architecture, this is a must see. It's northeast of the center of Rome. We got a taxi and intended to stay only 1 hour. We ended up spending over 2. It's 40 buildings done by a Florentine architect in a art nouveau, renaissance, classical, baroque mish mash of styles that you could imagine as a set at euro Disney or some kind of theme park. It is a combination of consulates, businesses, and private residences. Nothing else in the way of things to see or restaurants in the area. Just a fun photo stop!
