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.
