As a northeastern district of Rome, San Basilio is a tree-lined residential area flanked by farmland. It’s home to colorful street art, soccer fields, and specialty shops, as well as a handful of casual cafes, bars, and sculptures at the popular Whale Garden. It’s under 15 km from famous Rome attractions such as the ornate Trevi Fountain and the ancient Roman Colosseum, and 10 km from the Borghese Gallery and Museum.
