ISOLA TIBERINA
You will surely cross this island to go from the historical centre to Trastevere. Located in front of the portico of Octavia, the legend tells that it would be none other than the petrification of the ship that brought Aesculapius to Rome... A temple was built in his honour on the lower tip of the island, later replaced by a church: San Bartolomeo. The hospital run by the brothers of Saint-Jean-de-Dieu, called Fatebenefratelli ("Do good, my brothers") covers almost the entire perimeter of the island. The island of Tiberina is a very pleasant place to walk.
