Hidden gems of Rome

Three hidden gems of Rome that most tourist never see.

Quartiere Coppedè

Quartiere Coppedè

In the northern section of Rome, within the Trieste district, lies an astonishing and peculiar enclave. Conceived by Florentine architect Gino Coppedè in 1919, this extraordinary blend of Ancient Greek, Roman Baroque, Mannerist, Medieval, and Art Nouveau styles creates a fantastical and eclectic atmosphere.

How to visit?

The Coppedè Quarter is situated just beyond the historical center of Rome, specifically in the Trieste Salario neighborhood. Accessible by taxi or public transportation, such as buses and trams, the quarter can be reached conveniently from stops along Viale Liegi, Piazza Quadrata, Via Tagliamento, and Via Po.

The lock of the Knights of Malta

The "Keyhole of the Knights of Malta" is a unique and popular attraction in Rome, Italy. Located on Aventine Hill, at the Piazza dei Cavalieri di Malta, this keyhole provides a stunning and framed view of St. Peter's Basilica through a beautifully trimmed hedge-lined pathway.

How to visit?

To reach the "Keyhole of the Knights of Malta" on Aventine Hill in Rome, take the metro to Circo Massimo or use buses 44, 81, 160, or 628. Alternatively, enjoy a pleasant walk from Circus Maximus. Look for the green door at Piazza dei Cavalieri di Malta, and peer through the keyhole for a stunning view of St. Peter's Basilica.


San Clemente al Laterano

Another hidden gem in Rome is the Basilica of San Clemente al Laterano. This remarkable church is a layered archaeological and architectural wonder. It consists of three levels, each representing a different era of Roman history.

How to visit?

To reach the Basilica of San Clemente al Laterano in Rome, head near the Colosseum. Explore three layers of history: the 12th-century basilica on top, a 4th-century church below, and ancient Roman structures dating back to the 1st century AD at the lowest level. It's a captivating journey through time.
