Trastevere has existed as far back as ancient times, and aesthetically fits what you’d probably hope to see in a Roman neighborhood. Its walls and streets are old brick, colorful mason and cobblestone, covered with ivy and absolutely picturesque. There are not many cars around because of the narrow streets and alleyways, so you can feel like you’re a part of history.

At the same time, Trastevere has become something of a “young” bohemian neighborhood of late. It’s got a vibrant nightlife, with tons of restaurants, cafes, and bars always full of young people. There’s a flea market once a week and plenty of sights to see. Since it’s still an up-and-coming neighborhood and not smack in the middle of the biggest tourist sites, it’s still a pretty affordable area.

Finally, there are plenty of sites to see within Trastevere itself. These include the Piazza and Basilica Santa Maria, the oldest Marian church in Rome, the Villa Farnesina, a mansion from the 1500s with famous artworks on display and surrounding gardens, and the Basilica of Saint Cecilia, another ancient church, where frescos dating back to the 13th century are on display.

The post The Hippest Neighborhood to Stay in Rome appeared first on Traveler Dreams.

Trastavere: Colorful and arty

This formerly working-class district has been gentrified over the years. Bohemians and expats moved into the area and it has become known for the arts.

Here you will see art in all its forms and experience the sensory overload of the best possible kind. The neighborhood is home to microbreweries, tattoo parlors, outdoor cafés, and markets.

Tridente: The Spanish Steps and Trevi Fountain

This is one of Rome’s more upscale neighborhoods with top-rated restaurants and designer boutiques. Do some high-end shopping on the Via Condotti.

It is also home to the Spanish Steps and the Trevi Fountain, landmarks that attract visitors every time of the day and night. This is the place to see or be seen.

Monti: The old and the new

Monti may be Rome’s oldest quarter but it is also rather a hipster haven and great spot for people watching. You will see antique shops and cobblestone streets as well as many people going about their daily lives in this mostly working-class neighborhood. You can sit at one of the quirky bars or at an outdoor café and watch the passing parade.
