Things to Do in Trastevere, Rome

A medieval tangle of cobbled lanes west of the Tiber, centered on the mosaic-fronted Basilica di Santa Maria in Trastevere and Raphael's frescoes at Villa Farnesina. Trattorias, old delis like Antica Caciara, and late-night bars fill the streets below the Gianicolo hill.
