Trastevere walking loops — Rome across the river

Ivy climbs ochre walls, laundry hangs across narrow streets, and the evening light turns everything the color of old gold. Trastevere's cobblestones are treacherous in heels, which doesn't stop anyone. The restaurants fill early, tables spilling into piazzas where someone's always playing guitar and the wine is house-poured with a generous hand. Basilica di Santa Maria in Trastevere has mosaics that glow in candlelight. The neighborhood insists on being romantic, and resistance is genuinely futile.
