Rocca di Papa — Il Comune più Alto dei Castelli Romani

Lazio

Rocca di Papa sits higher than any other Castelli Romani town, its stepped streets climbing partway up the slopes of Monte Cavo, the highest peak in the volcanic Alban Hills. The belvedere gives one of the widest views in the whole Castelli Romani area, taking in Lake Albano and the plain toward Rome.
