This neighbourhood in the east of Rome is clearly delineated by the East Tangenziale. Stroll along the tree-lined, flower-decked paths of Verano cemetery and soak up the busy university district. Don't miss the San Lorenzo fuori le Mura Basilica, restored following bombing in 1943 to its 13C allure. Behind its delicately decorated façade lies an interior where you can admire Cosmati marblework of outstanding quality.
