Located on the opposite bank of the river Tiber, s Located on the opposite bank of the river Tiber, south of the Vatican, is the picturesque neighbourhood of Trastevere. The name Trastevere means; โ€˜beyond the Tiberโ€™. This old working-class neighbourhood with its maze of many narrow alleyways, winding streets and medieval houses is a particularly lively affair at night โ€“ thanks to the many tourists โ€“ with lots of restaurants, trattorias and pizzerias. Visit this truly Italian neighbourhood of Rome for a lovely stroll or relax on one of the many caffรฉ terraces. I would recommend opting for an apartment or Airb&b (rather than a hotel) in Trastevere if you want to make your next trip to Rome feel more authentic. . . . . . . . #tiberisland #isolatiberina #romeneiborhood #trastevere #roma #rome #italy #italia #trastevereroma #igersroma #igtravel #romacapitale #travel #romeitaly #photography #colosseo #testaccio #lungotevere #tevere #streetphotography #streetart #vivoroma #romacaputmundi #romacentro #vaticano
