My Favorite museums in Rome! 

Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Moderna e Compemporanea 

You can easily spend a whole day here. Bring your book and have a glass of natural wine in the museum cafe I

 

Galleria Borghese

This might just be the most beautiful museum I've ever visited. When I entered and walked up to Apollo and Daphne of Bernini, I had tears in my eyes

 

Galleria Doria Pamphilj

Loved this museum as my friend who is an art historian knew all about this impressive private art collection in a beautiful 17th-century palace.

The collection includes Caravaggio and Raphael and many more renowned artists.

 

Palazzo Barberini

Again my art historic friend, Ank gave us a tour. Barberini houses an extraordinary collection of masterpieces I especially loved "La Fornarina" by Raphael and the

Portrait of Beatrice Cenci by Guido Renin (shown above)

 

Villa Farnesina

Villa Farnesina is great if you're done with tourists and just like to wander in a beautiful palazzo from a wealthy

Roman family with amazing frescoes.

 

Maxxi 

Quite a contradiction with the orders, but this contemporary museum and stunning building of Zaha Hadid + the Flaminio district where it is located is worth a visit!
