Via Cola di Rienzo, 00192 Roma
Built in the late 19th century for a new bourgeois Rome, Prati has the wide boulevards and liberty-style buildings the ancient city conspicuously lacks. Come here for the best gelato near the Vatican, a long lunch at a neighborhood trattoria, and a shopping street that Romans actually use.
Our take
“Via Cola di Rienzo is where Romans shop — not tourists. Walk it on a Saturday morning and stop at Mercato Trionfale for one of the best covered food markets in the city.”
