The Gianicolo
does not count as one of the official seven
hills of Rome, but many Romans would argue
it is the prettiest, overlooking the City
from the west, dotted with vast parks and beautiful
villas.
It is accessible by foot from Trastevere, and is worth the climb on
a beautiful day. Start up the winding V.
Garibaldi, past the
 convent
and Church oŁ S. Maria Sette Dolori ,
watching for a path opening on the right that
leads to a set of stairs that bring you to the
Piazza and Church of S. Pietro in Montorio,
rebuilt with the assistance of Ferdinand and
Isabella of Spain, on what was long believed
to be the site of St. Peter's crucifixion.
The church is both simple and lovely, but what
continues to draw admirers to this spot is the
exquisite Tempietto di Bramante in the
cloister .to the right.
Follow the curving V. Garibaldi up and to the
right to the wonderful Fontana dell'Acqua
Paola, set Into the wall of the Spanish
Academy, then turn up V. Giacomo Medici
to V. Angelo Masina for a peek at the American
Academy of Rome, established in 1894, and
home to a rotating roster of American scholars
and artists invited for stays in Rome. At the
end of V. Masina, follow passeggiata del
Gianicolo to Piazzale Garibaldi to
enjoy Its thrilling prospect over Rome, then
retrace your steps to V. Garibaldi and return
to the bottom of the hill.
