Sunrise from the train to Tivoli

What a beautiful town Tivoli is! It was the summer resort of Emperor Augustus. Villa d’este is known for its terraced hillside Italian Renaissance garden and fountains. But first after departing the train let’s take a walk through the streets.

Streets are narrow and steep, watch your step!

There is much signage which leads you to D’Este. Once there visit the old church next to the entrance then begin your tour.

The Frescoes – have never seen such beautiful frescoes. Here is a sampling..

Now, on to the Gardens..

Here were some of the most beautiful Roman gardens I have ever seen..

To see and appreciate all the art work and gardens anticipate at least a two hour visit.

Enjoy!
