"Colle Oppio" is one of the three hills which, with Fagutal and Cispius, constituted Mons Esquilinus. It belongs to the Monti district, of which it constitutes the green lung, and is between via Labicana, via degli Annibaldi, via Cavour, via Giovanni Lanza, via Merulana. The surrounding streets were intensively built between the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, while the archaeological emergencies (what remained, at least, from the looting) were included in the vast Colle Oppio Park, which slopes down towards the Colosseum valley. In 1871, as part of the urban reorganization following the establishment of Rome as the capital, the area was used as public gardens. But it was under the fascist dictatorship, in the years ranging from 1928 to 1936, that Colle Oppio assumed its current structure. The landscape architect Raffaele De Vico was the designer who took care of it. The extension of the gardens is 11 hectares; entrances: viale del Monte Oppio, via delle Terme di Traiano, via Mecenate, via Labicana, via Nicola Salvi, via delle Terme di Tito

From the Colle Oppio park you can enjoy the best view of the Colosseum, not disturbed by the city traffic. Harmonious gardens. Children’s playground and a small outdoor café/kiosk.
