Great old castle, nice placement near the Tiber river. The view is gorgeous, especially at sunset since the Basilica of St. Peter can be seen in the background. Also, the pedestrian bridge over the river is a romantic place with people that play slow songs on the guitar. We did not enter because the castle was closed, but it was pretty crowded so I suppose you should get tickets in advance if you want to visit the inside. #境外遊

The magic of Lungotevere in Rome: The unmissable places to admire at sunset ❤️ There are many great architectural works that overlook the Tiber, among which many make Rome "great". The Tiber is the water vein of the capital, for millennia it has told legends and acts as a silent sentinel to the city Caput Mundi. So if you are in town my advice is to come here at sunset and admire: - Sant'Angelo castel - The Church of the Sacred Heart of Suffteggio - The Palace of Justice, called by the Romans: Palazzaccio - And finally see the sun go down over the horizon with the Skyline of San Pietro, from Ponte Umberto I. What is your favorite spot? #rome #italy #italia #awesomepic #historicallandmarks #couplestrip #unforgettableexperiences

The iconic St. Angelo Bridge crosses the River Tiber leading to the entrance of Castel Sant’Angelo. Once the tallest building in Rome, it was built in the 2nd century CE at the direction of Emperor Hadrian.
