It has long been occupied by the Knights of the Order of Malta and by the very ancient Santa Sabina Basilica<\/strong> with its charming Orange Garden<\/strong>.\r\nThe hill dominates from its southwest side the lively and nightlife-filled district of Testaccio<\/strong><\/a> with its bars and clubs, stretching between the Tiber and the Aurelian Walls, up to the Porta San Paolo<\/strong> and the Pyramid of Cestius<\/strong>. At the center stands the peculiar Monte Testaccio<\/strong>, an artificial hill 36 meters high, created in antiquity by the accumulation of broken amphorae.\r\n
