Trastevere is a charming and intimate neighborhood full of medieval character and local color. The name means 'across the Tiber River' which describes its location to the Centro Storico via the historic Ponte Sisto bridge. The area is famous for its historic atmosphere of narrow lanes entering into small quiet piazzas, with hanging plants tumbling from terraces and wash hanging out to dry. There are abundant restaurants, shops, bars, outdoor cafes and excitement. The Piazza Santa Maria with its famous church is considered the center of the area and is only about 500 metres from the flat.
It is less than a 10 minute walk across the bridge to the Piazza di Campo dei Fiori, Piazza Navona and the Pantheon. It is also a short walk to Piazza Venezia, Piazza del Campidoglio (the Capitol Square), the Colosseo, the Foro Romano, the Via del Corso, Piazza Spagna and the famous Fontana di Trevi. The flat is easily accessible from the Fiumicino Airport via the airport train and local tram.
