I love walking around Rome and trying all the local foods. One of my favorite spots to visit is the Trastevere and trying the many food venues there is amazing. Here are some of the highlights of my visit there including some wonderful food stops http://travelphotodiscovery.com/trastevere-tasting-specialty-and-local-foods/

I was there two years ago and was surprised to see the entire square was filled with street vendors. I think there was a street fair going that weekend, there were artists painting and selling there art, people playing different kinds of music at each end of the square. The eating places had an area where people could sample each places foods so they could decide if they wanted to have dinner there. Overall it was a great day, we spent some time in the church and in some of the shops in the square but spent most of the time looking at the street fair vendors.

For any art history student, or tourist for that matter, the Tempietto should not be missed. Created by Bramante, it’s the first official masterpiece of Italian High Renaissance architecture, and it’s located in Trastevere at San Pietro in Montorio. When I went, I thought it’d be crowded for sure, but it wasn’t. I was able to get VERY close to it, which was a real treat. It’s free! Don’t miss it!
