During the visit you will be able to explore the emblematic places of Villa Medici, such as the historic gardens and rooms, as well as the more hidden corners, such as the studiolo of Ferdinando de’ Medici, also known as the “Bird Room.” Located on the Pincio Hill, Villa Medici also offers a breathtaking view of the historic center of Rome.
