Location

The Botanical Garden of Rome (Orto Botanico di Roma) is located at Largo Cristina di Svezia 24, nestled between the Trastevere district and the slopes of the Janiculum Hill, in the park of Villa Corsini. This lush, 12-hectare garden sits on the right bank of the Tiber River and was once part of the private grounds of Palazzo Corsini, now the headquarters of the Accademia dei Lincei. Nearby, you’ll find the vibrant Trastevere neighborhood, known for its charming streets and lively atmosphere, as well as the historic Villa Farnesina and the scenic Gianicolo Hill, which offers panoramic views over Rome. The garden is just a short walk from the Tiber River and close to cultural sites like Palazzo Corsini and Santa Maria in Trastevere. This central location makes the Botanical Garden an ideal green oasis within easy reach of Rome’s historic and artistic treasures.
