The borough of Trastevere has had an autonomous history respect to the rest of the city.
Due to its isolated position on the opposite side of the river Tiber, far from the heart of the city, the borough has been populated since the early ages by a multiethnic community (the Etruscan first, the Jewish and Syrians afterwards), who contributed to make the borough a world of its own (Trastevere’s women, for instance, were considered more beautiful than the Roman women).
In the common imaginary, Trastevere perfectly embodies the Roman borgata (borough), represented, to its greatest extent, by the mask of Rugantino.
In this sense, the night life of Trastevere is rich of culinary attractions and entertainment.
Given all this, Trastevere offers the chance to visit one of the oldest boroughs of the city, losing oneself in its numerous and tortuous lanes, while at night, the place becomes a must for those in search of fun and good food.
