Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

This is the starting pointb of the walking street food tour. Piazza Giuseppe Gioachino Belli, located in front of the Garibaldi bridge, owes its name to the memory of the greatest dialectal singer in Rome, Giuseppe Gioachino Belli (1791-1863). There are many more historical monuments near to this piazza.

Stop 2

The first church on this site was founded probably in the 3rd century, and you can pass this historical place while your walking food tour.

Stop 3

The heart of the district is Piazza Santa Maria in Trastevere, enclosed in the splendid seventeenth-century arrangement. The fountain in the center, with an octagonal basin, is the work of Carlo Fontana.

Stop 4

Ponte Sisto, the first bridge built in modern times, was built by Pope Sixtus IV della Rovere (1471-1484), on the occasion of the Jubilee of 1475, to allow direct communication between the Trastevere district (and the Vatican) and the rest of the city.

Stop 5

Piazza Trilussa located between the Lungotevere della Farnesina and the Lungotevere Raffaello Sanzio, right in front of the Sisto bridge, recalls the great Roman poet Trilussa, pseudonym of Carlo Alberto Salustri. The square, in the past called "Piazza di Ponte Sisto", houses the beautiful fountain commissioned by architects Van Santen (called "il Vasanzio") and Giovanni Fontana: it is the second exhibition of the Acqua Paola (after the Paola Fountain ), that is the ancient Traiano aqueduct, following the extension of its canalization to feed, in addition to the districts of Trastevere and Borgo, also those of Regola and Ponte.
