Its northwestern slope rises steeply above the banks of the Tiber River.\r\n<h2>The Heart of the Aventine<\/h2>\r\nThe historic center of the Aventine is the <strong>Piazza dei Cavalieri di Malta<\/strong>, which acquired its current appearance from architect <strong>Giovanni Battista Piranesi<\/strong> around 1765. At number 3 on this square, a famous view is revealed through the keyhole of the priory gate of the Knights of Malta. One can glimpse the dome of St. Peter's Basilica at the end of a rose-lined avenue. You can easily find the spot by following the usual daytime queue.\r\nAdjacent to it is the Church of Saints Boniface and Alexis.\r\n\r\nVia di Santa Sabina leads to <strong>Piazza Pietro d'Illiria<\/strong>. From here, one can discover the fascinating <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rome-roma.net\/en\/basilica-of-saint-sabina\/\"><strong>Basilica of Saint Sabina<\/strong><\/a> and enter the Savello Park, better known as the <strong>Orange Garden<\/strong> (<em>Giardino degli Aranci<\/em> in Italian). One can admire a beautiful panorama of the city, with a splendid perspective of St. Peter's dome.\r\n<h2>On the Edge of the Hill<\/h2>\r\nDescending the eastern slope of the hill, one enjoys a view encompassing the Circus Maximus and the Palatine Hill, particularly impressive at sunset when these ruins are illuminated.\r\n\r\nThe <strong>Municipal Rose Garden<\/strong> occupies the base of this slope.\r\n\r\nThe imposing walls emerging from the Palatine Hill are the remnants of the <em>Domus Augustana<\/em>, the former grand palace of Emperor Domitian and his successors.\r\n\r\nThe hill located to the east of the Aventine is called the \"Little Aventine,\" with at its heart the charming <strong>Basilica of San Saba<\/strong>.","link":"https:\/\/www.rome-roma.net\/en\/district\/aventine-hill\/","name":"Aventine Hill","slug":"aventine-hill","taxonomy":"quartier","parent":572,"meta":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Aventine Hill &ndash; Rome-Roma<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"To the east of the Tiber, the Aventine Hill is a quiet residential area in central Rome.
