Rome has many surprises. A simple walk can reveal a new gem. It may be a tree in blossom, or a new street or a beautiful park. Those surprises come in all shapes of forms, however, you don't always just stable across an Art Nouveau Island right in the center of Rome.,

Once upon a time in a far away land there lived a powerful noble family, Ludovisi, Legend as it that the four corners of the word have heard of the beauty of their Roman gardens during the 17th and the 18th century. Like any respected Roman family, Ludovisi were avid collectors of art, Ancient and contemporary.
Unfortunately their "ever after" ended by the 19th century, when the financial crisis of the family obliged them to fragment their lands and sell those plots(This is actually the reason why layout of the Cartiere Ludivisi is so uneven) All the plots were sold except for one that become the dumping ground of the quarter. |
