AP14 - PIRAMIDE |
|
The district
Testaccio is one of the oldest
and most characteristic areas
of Rome and is located near the
most important tourist sites.
It takes its name from Monte Testaccio,
an artificial hill created by
Romans using broken pottery between
the 2nd and 3rd century BC. The
Latin name for the hill - “testae
cocci” - refers to the broken
urns which were used to hold goods
exchanged with the city of Ostia
Antica at an ancient port on the
River Tiber.
Not far from the apartment and
the nearby underground station
is the Pyramid in which praetor
and tribune Cauis Cestius was
buried in the 12th century BC
Today Testaccio is a lively area
famous for trattorias and restaurants
in which you can sample the most
authentic Roman dishes. Furthermore
Monte Testaccio is home to a vibrant
night life with a large number
of fashionable clubs and pubs.
Many of the bars and discos are
dug into the artificial hill and
in some it is still possible to
see fragments of the pottery urns
of which the hill is constructed.
The apartment is located in Via
Mastro Giorgio, a street road
which joins two of the most important
squares in Testaccio: Piazza Testaccio,
in which a picturesque market
is held every morning from Monday
to Saturday and in which it is
possible to buy fruit, vegetables,
herbs and flowers; and Piazza
S. Maria Liberatrice, the social
centre of the area with a theatre
and public gardens.

The 40 m² two-roomed apartment
is situated on the first floor
of a palazzo with porter service.
