Visitor visiting Rome often ignores the modest-looking Renaissance Villa Farnesina, yet for craft lovers it absolutely packs a punch. Central location, the reminiscent frescoes and uncrowned rooms, positively, make the estate probably the best museum in Italy. Estate Farnesina is available to all visitors and you can even go into the lavish rooms and principle lobby which has the famous Raphael Fresco known as "The Triumph of Galatea''. In this entire structure of the estate, you can sense how some building designs and pictorial decorations can be clubbed together to make such an immense milestone. Stepping into the Loggia of Cupid and Psyche resembles entering an intriguing nursery, splendid and brimming with flowers. The roof frescoes portray scenes from the delightful legend of Psyche, so excellent that Cupid himself couldn't resist experiencing passionate feelings for her. Upstairs, in the Salone delle Prospettive, you can appreciate an early illustration of optical illusion, three-dimensional stunning views of Roman countryside made by Baldassare Peruzzi. An extraordinary aspect concerning Villa Farnesina is that you can have the extravagant frescoes all to yourself, as the museum is infrequently packed.
