Introducing Tivoli
Pass through Rome’s scruffy eastern suburbs and you soon come to the busy hilltop town of Tivoli. A Roman resort and summer playground for the Renaissance rich, it’s best known for its two Unesco World Heritage sites: the monumental Villa Adriana and the 16th-century Villa d’Este. The latter is prettier and easier to get to, but the former is what makes a day trip here really worthwhile.
