Here, expect to find more travelers than locals, at least on weekdays. Trastevere is a neighborhood with a strong identity; those who were born and raised in Trastevere proudly say, “I’m Roman, from Trastevere,” as if to say, “I possess the quintessence of Roman-ness!” Until the 1970s, Trastevere was a place where Roman youth gathered to socialize and sing “stornelli,” rhyming songs in Roman dialect. Back then, foreigners were a minority in Rome’s nightlife. Today, it’s different.

Every time I visit it, day or night, the vibe I feel wandering its streets tells: I’m in Rome, I’m happy to be here, and I’m feeling great! This vibe is carried by both travelers and locals who frequent the Monti area. Travelers aren’t too many here because this neighborhood is outside the typical tourist routes.
