Palazzo della Civiltà Italiana
The 'Square Colosseum' — Mussolini-era rationalist architecture that's now Fendi's headquarters. The geometric arches are stunningly photogenic. Walk the surrounding esplanade for surreal vibes.
Museo della Civiltà Romana
10 min walk. Enormous scale model of ancient Rome at the height of the empire. Seeing the entire city in miniature is mind-blowing. Recently restored and uncrowded.
Ristorante Shangri-La Corsetti
8 min walk to the EUR lake. Lakeside dining with views of the Japanese garden. Fresh seafood and Roman classics. The terrace is magical in the evening.
Comments
Palazzo della Civiltà Italiana photos came out so good, the symmetry is wild. Go in the afternoon for the best light on the arches
Museo della Civiltà Romana scale model of ancient Rome is worth the metro ride alone. We spent way longer than an hour there 🏛️
Same, easily could have stayed two hours in there
Architecture lovers and couples bored of the usual Rome
Late afternoon for the best light on the buildings
