With a long time between trips to Rome we found ourselves revisiting the big sites, but this time we wanted to discover what to do in budget Rome off the Beaten Track. This was when we found the Rome Riones of Aventino, Testaccio and Ostiense. Aventino, the hilly suburb overlooking Rome is quite well known …

They say that central Rome’s favourite green market Campo de Fiori market Rome was so named because the site was once a Roman meadow. Fiori is Italian for flowers, and the name roughly translates to Field of Flowers, but although there were flowers for sale at the market, I got the feeling it’s prime purpose …

Sometimes we find ourselves visiting less well known sights in lieu of the big name places.
