Neighborhood: The interesting arrangement of buildings around a courtyard, now used for parking, echoes millennia of active use. The courtyard and the neighborhood were defined in the first century by the Emperor Domitian. As the city evolved, the palaces/buildings that were used for homes, warehouses and offices rose and fell again and again, preserving the building locations and streets that carry you even today to the important Roman locations.
The Ponte Sisto bridge nearby (now pedestrian) to Trastevere has spanned the River Tiber for millennia. For a peek into the past, an excavation into ancient Roman rooms below this area revealed rooms, arches, mosaics and a column from the ancient ages. It is seldom open but enjoy photos by searching online for images of Insula di San Paola alla Regola for a wonderful dive into the history of this area. Savor a Roman meal at Osteria Romana di Simmi nearby and ask if you may visit their own Roman era rooms below. The neighborhood church Santissima Trinita dei Pellegrini offers the rare Catholic Mass in Latin.
