Contrary to the chaos of the city, the Aventine is
Rome’s oasis. A neighbourhood made up of a patchwork
of ancient churches, hidden gardens, private homes and
embassies, peace and quiet is top priority and the
vibe definitely friends and family. Take a walk around
the Aventine and you’ll find a treasure hunt of
surprises like the clever little keyhole at the
Knights of Malta entrance (the only place you’ll find

a line) along with Parco Savello (Giardino degli
Aranci) next to the ancient Santa Sabina church. Keep

buildings are built atop Rome’s original 4th century
BC wall.
