More than just a great museum, the Borghese Gallery is a beautiful villa set in the leafy surrounding gardens. Art commissioned by the luxury-loving Borghese family is displayed in the fancy frescoed rooms for which it was created. Masterpieces by Baroque masters Bernini and Caravaggio are among the highlights. Don’t forget to get an easy-to-obtain reservation.
