Message from Francesco Meola

Villa Aldobrandini is a hidden green escape tucked away in the middle of Rome. It was once much larger, stretching all the way to the Quirinale Palace; however, the villa was shortened and its gardens remodeled when Termini station was built in the 19th century.

To enter the park you can ascend the short staircase to access the park and find a spacious array of trees, statues (many without heads!), and shady areas. The best part of visiting the site is the incredible views from its elevated position above the city. A trip to Villa Aldobrandini is an unexpected treat and a relaxing haven in the center of bustling Rome.

The entrance of the park is in Via Mazzarino.
