A collection of charming wine-producing hill-towns to the south east of Rome, Castelli Romani is home to several beautiful towns, and each has its own claims to fame. Great villas and palaces can be found all over the villages, as the area was once a favorite retreat for wealthy Roman residents in the past.

For those who are keen on tasting some of the region's white wine, make sure to visit the town of Frascati. Meanwhile, the town of Castel Gandolfo is home to the Papal Palace and its magnificent garden. Other towns to visit include Velletri, home to an archaeological museum dating back to the Iron Age, Arricia, which is famous for its roast pork, and Albano Laziale, a town with a lengthy history.
