This part of Rome is less touristy than the historic centre, but well positioned for visiting the Vatican without the crowds of the busier streets, and retains an everyday character made up of neighbourhood bars and trattorias.

On quieter days, Monte Ciocci Park and the nearby Ciclopedonale Linear Park offer green paths ideal for a walk or a run away from city traffic, in any season.
