If night life for you means discotheques and bars, well Rome is just the place for you.

It might be an idea, for example, taking a walk to Testaccio, located in the midst of Via Marmorata, the Aurelian Walls and the River Tiber, a popular quarter renowned also as the hub for supporters of Roma soccer club. The atmosphere is all abuzz in a district crammed with restaurants, bars and clubs, each more exciting than the other.

Moving away from the strictly tourist circuits, there is San Lorenzo, a lively neighbourhood with a bohemian touch to it. The lights of the bars and the crafts and arts studios make this area a vital piece in the vibrant mosaic of city life: a small village where people enjoying life around the clock spill out into the streets and piazzas.

Today it has become a district filled with university students, a kind of New York Village for life to be lead on a very human scale.
