Trastevere

This busy and lively neighborhood has the look and feel of a traditional small Italian town, with people shopping, chatting, drinking espresso and going about their daily business.

Ghetto Ebraico

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

Quartiere Coppede

Reviewed By demastersd - Houston, United States

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!
