OUR DISTRICT
“Celio” (Caelium in Latin) is the name of one of the Seven Hills and of the ancient district (“rione”) grown on this hill.
This rione is becoming more and more fashionable, like Trastevere: it offers a good choice of pubs, restaurants, wine bars and pizzerias.
It is also full of greens as it is encircled by public parks like Colle Oppio and Villa Celimontana, a beautiful park for jogging which hosts a Music Festival during summer and various cultural events during all year.
