Find out more about Historic Centre
Of all the districts in the Italian capital, the centre will give you the best idea of the fascinating history of this city. Stretching from Piazza del Popolo to Piazza Venezia, and from the east bank of the Tiber up to Piazza di Spagna, the Historic Centre – or Centro Storico – of Rome is a treasure trove of history, art, and culture, where every street feels like stepping into a postcard. The Imperial Forums, the countless churches, the Renaissance buildings and the narrow, winding streets, the squares and the monuments – the centre has the very best of what Rome has to offer.
Anchored by iconic landmarks like the Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Piazza Venezia, this area is a living museum. Marvel at the Pantheon’s architectural brilliance, toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain for good luck, or people-watch in the lively Piazza Navona. Being like a huge, living museum, the Historic Centre was proclaimed a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1980, and is bordered by the Aurelian and Gianicolense walls.
Beyond the immediate attractions, a leisurely stroll will lead you to the Vatican City or the Trastevere district with its cobblestone charm. Shopaholics can head to Via del Corso for Italian fashion, while foodies rejoice in trattorias offering everything from creamy carbonara to heavenly gelato. By day, explore ancient ruins and baroque masterpieces; by night, enjoy rooftop aperitivos with views of the Eternal City. Rome’s Historic Centre isn’t just a neighbourhood; it’s an experience waiting to inspire you. Are you not entertained?
