Overlooking the emerald green waters of Lake Albano, this stunning complex is a great escape from the hustle and bustle of Rome. There's a reason why Italian's plan their dream weddings here – it's mesmerizing.
Just 40 minutes by train from Rome, Pope Francis opened a huge portion of the site to the public in 2014. Spend some time admiring lush tree-lined gardens and manicured shrubbery, and make sure to visit the Belvedere and Magnolia gardens.
This divine property has provided peace and quiet for more than 30 popes since it was built in the early 17th century. You'll be overcome with Papal intrigue and fascinated further inside the Apostolic Palace.
