Sit down to an elegant meal featuring classic Bolognese cuisine (try the lasagna verde), and rub elbows with local artists, politicians, and the jacket-and-tie business crowd. Fantastic food and people-watching.
Shopping
Via dei Condotti and the area of Monti
The Via dei Condotti is home to some of Italy’s top designer stores such as Armani, Prada, Versace, and other notable names. Monti is one of Rome’s most exciting neighborhoods, stretching from the Colosseum to San Giovanni in Laterano. Turn almost any corner and you’ll find boutiques, gourmet stores, home furnishings you won’t find anywhere else. The main shopping streets are Via del Boschetto, Via dei Serpenti, Via Leonina, Via Panisperna and the side streets that connect them.
Culture
Villa Borghese Gardens
Located slightly north of the center of Rome, the Villa Borghese gardens are gorgeously landscaped and offer a peaceful oasis from the busy city streets. Be sure to visit the full-scale reconstruction of Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre, located inside the gardens.
