The region of hills and lakes where Romans, both past and present, go on vacation.
Its high hills and lush vegetation have made it a popular getaway from the heat and bustle of the big city.

Rocca di Papa, Frascati, Castel Gandolfo (the town that houses the Pope’s summer residence, now serving as a museum), Marino, and Nemi — these are just some of the towns scattered across the Colli Albani (Alban Hills).

They feature picturesque alleyways, ancient architecture, villas with gardens open to visitors, excellent local restaurants, and, between the towns, well-maintained picnic areas and spaces for active recreation.
