Neighborhoods of Rome

HISTORICAL CENTER

Many restaurants, cinemas, cafés, shops and small food shops; good public transport services (many buses and 2 subway lines); narrow streets, lively and happening neighborhoods but it can be noisy and on-the-street parking is difficult. Buildings are often centuries old - plumbing, heating and lack of lifts may reflect this.
