[A] The Church of the Gesù occupies the site St. Ignatius chose for his headquarters shortly after he founded the Society of Jesus in 1540. Its façade served as the model for Catholic churches for centuries to come. The decorations, largely Baroque, date from the late 17th century.
[B] Acadamia d'Opera Italiana. Enjoy a concert or opera staged by the Accademia d'Opera Italiana at the All Saints Church on Via Del Babuino. Pprofessional performances in an intimate setting. The season is from September to May, but check their website for details.
[C] The Jewish Quarter. Start at the wonderful turtle fountain in Piazza Mattei (northern end of Via della Reginella), then wander 100 metres south and right into Via del Portico d"Ottavia, the main street in the Quarter. Spend time amonst the many shops and restaurants, while admiring the hotchpotch of ancient and medievil and Renaissance architecture. Don't miss the Portico d'Ottavia at the southern end of this street.
[D]
Villa Celimontana. This is one of Rome's loveliest, and most hidden, public gardens. It's also the site of the Roman Jazz Festival in July each year.
[E] Trastevere. Trastevere is a picturesque medieval area located on the west bank of the Tiber. The area escaped the grand developments which changed the face of central Rome, and is a charming place to wander, eat or relax. Walk to Trastevere from Campo dei Fiori over the elegant pedestrian bridge, Ponte Sisto, roam the tourist streets north of Viale Trastevere and the quieter lanes to the south.
[F] Monti. Centred on Piazza della Madonna dei Monti, this neighbourhood has charming restaurants, interesting boutiques, narrow lanes, buildings darkened by time, an underground piazza (Piazza dell Suburra, near the entrance to Metro Cavour), and very few tourists.
[G] Ostia Antica. Ostia Antica is Rome's own, nearly-secret fascinating archaeological site - a mini-Pompeii without the crowds. This old port town has ancient shops, houses, an amphitheater, warehouses, temples, baths, market hall, statues, wall-paintings, temples, streets, gardens, a palace, mosaics, apartments, roads, and frescoes.
