A guided tour of Villa Medici reveals one of the finest examples of a Renaissance villa, once the residence of Cardinal Ferdinando I de’ Medici and, since 1803, home to the French Academy in Rome. The tour traces the history of the site from its ancient origins to the major transformations of the Renaissance and contemporary eras. During the visit you will be able to explore the emblematic places of Villa Medici, such as the historic gardens and rooms, as well as the more hidden corners, such as the studiolo of Ferdinando de’ Medici, also known as the “Bird Room.” Located on the Pincio Hill, Villa Medici also offers a breathtaking view of the historic center of Rome.

It was built in order to link the the Trinità dei Monti church that was under the patronage of the king of France, with the Spanish square below. The long, triangular Spanish square is named after the Spanish Embassy to the Holy See.

The Piazza Navona is located in the heart of the historic center, not far from the Pantheon. it’s one of the most beautiful and famous square of Rome! There, you can admire the the Bernini's Fountain of the Four Rivers.

The Pantheon is the best preserved ancient building in Rome and another must-see touristic attraction to add to your list! Originally dedicated to all mythology divinities, it became a Christian church in the 7th century. Inside, admire the immense dome and the oculus (the opening in the dome), giving the place a unique lighting. In the Pantheon, you can also see the tombs of Raphael (the famous artist) and Victor Emmanuel II (1st king of Italy).

The Trevi Fountain is the most famous of all the fountains in Rome attracting most first-time visitors as a 'must see'. It is tradition to throw a coin into the fountain to ensure your return to Rome.
