Ricco di opere marmoree dell'antica Roma, in un palazzo elegante e poco noto per chi non del settore.

Szép kiállítás, gyönyörű épület. A piazza navona a közelben van, ezért aki azt megnézte, ugorjon be egy bő órára. A museo nazionale romana oldalon váltott jeggyel három múzeumba is be tudunk menni. Megéri mindegyik.

The museum itself was lovely and definitely worth a visit, but the woman at the entrance desk was rude. She sighed loudly and seemed annoyed I asked anything. I'd recommend a job without customer interaction if that kind of work frustrates her.
