There's plenty to explore in Italy outside Rome, The Eternal City. One such example is Tivoli, an hour east of the capital. This hilltop town was once the summer retreat for ancient Romans and the Renaissance rich. Today it is known for its 16th-century UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Villa d'Este. Exploring this lavish Renaissance retreat is simply a treat for the eyes. Expect landscaped gardens, lavish fountains, statues, and grottoes that will take your breath away.

Built for Ippolito d'Este, the 16th-century cardinal, and statesman, the Villa d'Este is awe-inspiring inside and out, and a much-copied model for European gardens. With your ticket, you can admire its impressive gardens, stroll along paths circled enveloped by statues, and listen to the tinkling of water from the fountains on its endless terraces. Inside the villa, see stunning wall-to-wall frescoes in lavish halls and rooms.
