Discover Rome through 6 districts and 6 maps Campo dei Fiori/ Pantheon/ Piazza Navona Vaticano/ Piazza Cavour/ Prati Testaccio/ Aventino/ Trastevere/ Ghetto Tridente/ Piazza del Popolo/ Villa Borghese Quirinale/ Esquilino/ Termini Caracalla/ San Giovanni/ Colosseo For each district there is a double-page of addresses (restaurants — listed in ascending order of price — cafés, bars, tearooms music venues and stores) followed by a fold-out map for the relevant area with the essential places to see (indicated on the map by a star *). These places are by no means all that Rome has to offer but to us they are unmissable. The grid-referencing system ( A B2) makes it easy for you to pinpoint addresses quickly on the map. Transportation and hotels in Rome The last fold-out consists of a transportation map and 4 pages of practical information that include a selection of hotels. A thematic index lists all the sites and addresses featured in this guide The Washington Post says, “The map guide lets you be inconspicuous: it’s as small and light as a novella, and its flip-out maps could pass as a flyer to a cool club.” “Make sure you never lose your way in a strange city. Each of the Knopf MapGuides captures its city’s pith in a package as small as a passport wallet…”– Real Simple “Knopf MapGuides are handy, practical and perfect for those of us who are slightly impaired when it comes to map-reading. You don’t have to search a huge crackling sheet with a microscopic index for one of 10,000 dots on the map…The extraordinary quality of the books’ beautiful hues and heavy paper also give these $8.95 guides an evocative quality that stands apart from the glossy, garish look of most travel books.” – Marin Independent Journal “A good, handy portable item for a quick trip” – San Francisco Chronicle “We love Knopf’s smart new map guides.” – Travel & Leisure Rome Authors: Assia Rabinowitz Mélani Le Bris; Giulia Zappa in Rome
