   Galleria Borghese

   1h 30min

   The history of the gallery begins with the powerful Cardinal Scipione, a great art lover and a patron of famous painter Caravaggio. With the cardinal’s efforts the impressive collection of the palace acquired more masterpieces, including paintings by the greatest Italian artist such as Titian, Raphael, Caravaggio, Rubens, Botticelli and others. Worthy of special mention is a world-famous marble sculpture by Bernini, which depicts the story of Apollo and Daphne.

2. 2

   Villa Borghese Gardens

   1h

   Visit the surrounding gardens of the villa and take a relaxing walk through art and nature in one of the largest urban parks in Rome. See neoclassical Temple of Diana, the pretty artificial lake of Esculapius and the Pincio Terraces with one of the most popular panoramas of the city.
