Park Savello behind the inconspicuous gate at the top of the hill Aventin, named after an Italian noble family, which at one time gave Rome and senators, and consuls, and cardinals, and even educators emperors.
Themselves as the Romans called this place orange garden. Here, among the oleander and opletennyh ivy bowers actually grow oranges or rather, Pomeranz - bitter and therefore inedible, but a very nice sort of citrus.
In early spring when the trees appear bright orange fruit, a cloud hangs over the avenues tart flavor, the whole garden seems descended from Italian Renaissance paintings. It is no accident: Pomeranz, who so loved to depict in his paintings of Renaissance artists, grew up in the park since time immemorial. Yes, the first Roman orange ripe nearby - a tree that is planted in the backyard of his monastery (among other things, the First Dominican monastery in Rome) the future of St. Dominic, while still modest member of a religious community. The descendant of the legendary tree grows here so far - his worship of the sacred and beregut over a glass wall in the Basilica of Santa Sabina. If you go through the rows of trees to the viewing platform, before the eyes appear splendid panorama of stately Tiber and the Vatican Council.
