Rome Nightlife

The hang out pods of this city of the gods can be mapped not only by the stereotypically labeled genre of content but by age group as well.

One can also chill and enjoy in the music and heterogeneous atmosphere of Campo De Fiori. Other hotspots for night enjoyments are Trastevere, San Lorenzo, [...]
