Tiber Island

Quiet. Great to escape crowds. River lovely.

Isola Tiberina is a beautiful place to visit, especially in the evening when a peaceful walk along the river feels calm and relaxing. The island is home to a hospital, a charming church, and cozy coffee shops. One of the oldest bridges in Rome, Ponte Fabrizio, connects the island to the city. In the summer, you'll also find riverside shops, along with scenic walking and cycling paths — it’s definitely worth a visit.

Rome is crowded. But surprisingly the Tiber is not - the riversides are mostly green and therefore shady and a bit cooler. And so the Tiber-Island is a location to get some rest when visiting Rome: two Bridges connect the Island with both sides of the City and around the Island is a broad path where people hang out and enjoy their live. The history of the Island is pretty cool and the only downside is, that because of the old hospital every couple minutes an ambulance swings by.

I visited Tiberina Island after seeing its high rating on Google, but I was disappointed by the experience. The island is extremely small and can be explored in under a minute. There are no notable attractions or activities, and the overall environment felt unkempt and filthy. I would not recommend visiting, as it does not offer much to see or do

The Tiber Island (Isola Tiberina) is an island in the middle of the southern bend in the Tiber River in the heart of Rome. It's connected to each bank by the Ponte Fabricio and the Ponte Cestio bridges. The island is home to the historic San Bartolomeo church and also housed the Temple of Aesculapius, which was constructed in ancient time as a temple to honor the god of medicine and healing after Rome was hit by a damaging plague. Today, the boat-shaped island is home to a modern hospital and the renovated San Bartolomeo, which was built over the ruins of the Temple of Aesculapius.

I liked it because it was just cool. Didn't bother me that they let it get all littered and overrun with weeds. The history and the traces of the old magic were still enough to inspire. Once again, I find myself wishing Rome would not ignore the minor jewels she owns. I am here in Autumn, and I think the brisk air and changing leaves added to the magic.

Really cool, never seen anything like this before. Truly unique and worth seeing. Fascinating how this hospital was built on one of the only islands on the Tiber.

The island is historical dating back to 290 BC... when a temple was built for healing...later it was a hospital and there is also a Basilica from the 10 century .....Many wonderful sights walking the banks of the River Tiber some expected and other unexpected....its not how I prefer my art but some prefer art on themselves .. venturing into the side streets....there are good places to eat....

Isola Tiberina is the world's smallest inhabited island-- to get there, you'll cross Rome's oldest original bridge, not far from Capitoline Hill. The island, while cute to stroll around, is also home to a tenth-century basilica, fully operational hospital and annual film fest that will have any modern movie junkie totally enamored. Excellent pasta and you absolutely must try the Basil gelato at Tiberino restaurant!

What a crazy cool place! The only island in the Tiber with a church, a hospital, and a michelin star restaurant. What else could you need. The gateway between the Jewish quarter and Travastere. If you go towards the south end you can walk down towards the water. It may used to be a place of condemnation, shrines to gods and what not but it's a great place when the weather is nice

Unique, but about the size of a small square 30x30'. 2 shops. One a cappuccino place. Nice church to go inside. But overall could be skipped. At one time it was something. But now the church is really only worth seeing. The bland looking hospital you can get as far as reception, so IMO other things worth more time than this. But you can take a quick r/t from the Vatican (took me an hour) which is a nice walk along the Tiberia.
