ART AND NATURE IN THE ETERNAL CITY!
Whether you’re an art aficionado looking to lose yourself in masterpieces, or you’re simply seeking a tranquil escape from the city’s buzz, Villa Borghese is your ideal haven in the vibrant heart of Rome.
Spanning nearly 200 acres, Villa Borghese is a blend of Italian and English-style gardens, elegant fountains, and meandering paths perfect for a leisurely stroll or a peaceful picnic. Its highlights include the serene Temple of Aesculapius, nestled on an idyllic lake where you can rent rowboats and take to the water.
At the centre of the park lies Galleria Borghese, one of Rome’s most celebrated museums. Home to masterpieces by Bernini, Caravaggio, and Raphael, the gallery is a treasure trove of artistic wonders.
Exploring Villa Borghese on wheels is a fantastic way to soak in its beauty while covering more ground. The park offers several rental points where you can hire bikes, segways, or even quirky pedal carts, making it a fun and convenient way to get around. Glide past ancient fountains, weave through shaded pathways, and discover hidden corners of this sprawling green oasis at your own pace.
When you’re feeling peckish, grab a coffee or gelato from one of the charming kiosks scattered throughout the park, or pack your own picnic and find a shady spot by the serene lake. The park is also dotted with charming cafes and restaurants letting you savour Rome’s culinary delights while soaking up the park’s peaceful atmosphere.
Be sure to check out the Silvano Toti Globe Theatre – a charming slice of Elizabethan England in the heart of Rome. This open-air theatre, modelled after Shakespeare’s Globe, offers a unique cultural experience with its circular wooden design and intimate stage setting, hosting an array of performances, from Shakespearean classics to modern adaptations.
And don’t miss out on the Pincio Terrace, offering some of the most spectacular views of the Roman skyline. At sunset, this spot is nothing short of magical, with St. Peter’s Basilica and the city’s iconic domes glowing in the fading light.
