This is a militaria store very near to the Rome Terminal. More precisely, it has some modern…read moremilitary gear; but not much in the way of insignia. However, the good news is that it does have a selection of police, fire, and Red Cross insignia. If you collect any of these items then this store is worth a look.

A great find! I love to find antique/vintage markets to look through on my travels and this is…read moredefinitely a good one. Rome is not short on antique shops or vintage shops but budget ones are rare. This is the American equivalent of an antique mall where several dealers/pickers have their section or glass cabinet full of things up for sale. While this place has things in all price ranges, the selection is big and I could easily find some bargains. I ended up finding an item I liked in one of the locked glass cabinets and I easily spotted a staff member who quickly and in a friendly manner showed it to me, and later, had an English speaking person tell me where to pay and pick it up when I was done looking. The good size clothing section is particularly priced well, I saw nice leather jackets for 25 euro and a nice leather trimmed tote for 15. They of course have the high end name brand stuff section for more. There's a large furniture section which included several mid century Italian design items that would be much much more in the states, for example a 50s Italian love seat with all the right curves and metal peg legs was only 200 euro when I could see it being thousands in the US. The neighborhood is a bit off the way if you're staying in the Vatican/Centro area but near the Termini station, tho surely worth the treck!

One of the best used markets in Rome. Good finds on unusual pieces although some things are a bit…read morepricey. Furniture, clothing, household accessories, kitchen, dvd's, books and music. Worth visiting since it is one of the largest and most selective in the city. It even has a stylish bar inside also with outdoor seating and off street parking.

Total gem! Saw a sign that said Billiardo on our way to dinner. The actual billiard was in the very…read moreback of the alley way. We decided to check it out after dinner. No one was there,which at first made my husband and I question the whole situation. The tables were very nice and brand new, the pool sticks were super high end. We had 4 alcoholic drinks and they gave us peanuts and olives. I kept telling my husband it was going to cost so much because everything was so nice. To our surprise it only cost $10 euro for over an hour of pool and $6 euro for all 4 drinks! We only have 2 more nights here but will defiantly return before we head to Florence. I can't believe we had this place all to ourselves! We will be getting our drink on here.

Lots of Legos, trains, pirate ships, Barbie dolls and some new toys that I had not seen. Not a big selection but enough to let you browse without feeling overwhelmed. Great find near the sights.
