Roma Trip Overview
Garbatella is a unique neighborhood in the world. Born as a housing district for the workers who would build the factories of the nascent Ostiense industrial district, it was conceived in an innovative way: condominiums (called “plots”) consisting of 2 or 3-storey houses in neo-baroque style with shared gardens in which the inhabitants could socialize. Over the years the type of houses and their function changed but the charm of the district has remained intact and still today it seems a city apart from the city
