Description

Trastevere - Rome - Italy - Europe

Take a tour of Trastevere in Rome, Italy -- part of the World's Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats. If Julius Caesar built his vacation villa there, you can bet that it's a worthy location for anyone traveling through Rome. Trastevere, meaning across the Tiber, sits equidistant from the Colosseum in Rome and Vatican City. Narrow cobblestone streets and medieval architecture gives the neighborhood its quaint, colorful character. When Trastevere was first captured by the Romans, it was not developed or considered a part of the city proper. Thus, this part of Rome became a melting pot of different immigrant cultures, such as Syrians and Jews. Today, Trastevere still attracts many tourists, ex-pats, artists and celebrities, looking for the quieter side of Rome. Trastevere is a popular night spot, with locals and tourists alike filling the streets in search of good times and beautiful architecture.
