Aventine Hill is one of the seven hills of Rome and is considered significant by Romans as the place where the city originated. While it may not attract as many tourists as the Colosseum, Pantheon, or Vatican area, it has plenty of sights to offer and is perfect for those who want to experience a different side of Rome. Exit the Circo Massimo station on Metro Line B, and as you admire the ruins of the Circus Maximus on your right, take a left turn along the path beside the rose garden, which is in full bloom in May. This will lead you to a street lined with churches. The view from the Orange Garden is stunning. It's the perfect spot to take in the colors of the vast city of Rome, with the dome of the Vatican as a landmark. Next to it, the solemn atmosphere of the Basilica of Santa Sabina is overwhelming. The use of columns from a nearby temple during the church's construction might contribute to this feeling. The use of pink and light blue in the Basilica of Saints Boniface and Alexius enhances its charm. Looking through the keyhole of the Knights of Malta to see the Vatican will make you feel incredibly happy. If you come to Rome, this is a must-see! Taking a leisurely tour will take about 2-3 hours. The morning, when there are fewer people, is recommended.
