It was originally the private art collection of a wealthy cardinal, but now is a public art gallery, and one of Rome’s greatest attractions.

Villa Borghese

Details: I suggest to enjoy a relaxed morning walk in the Villa Borghese which is considered the city green lung. The Gardens cover an area of 80 hectares and were developed in 1606 by Cardinal Scipione Borghese, who wanted to turn his former vineyard into the most extensive gardens built in Rome The Borghese Gallery is inside the Borghese Gardens, in Rome city center.
