Giuliano-Dalmata is the 31st quartiere of Rome, located south of the modern EUR district. Its development began in the 1930s but was primarily realized after World War II to house refugees from Istria and Dalmatia, which explains its name. The district's architecture is a notable example of Italian Rationalism, characterized by functional designs, clean lines, and large apartment blocks surrounded by green spaces. A striking example is the Laurentino 38 residential complex, known for its unique, bridge-like structures. The district gives a glimpse into a different side of Rome, far from the ancient ruins. Local points of interest include the Tre Fontane Abbey, an ancient monastery complex said to be the site of St. Paul the Apostle's beheading. The Church of San Marco Evangelista in Agro Laurentino is another important modern place of worship. While primarily residential, it has a tranquil atmosphere with parks and local markets that provide an authentic Roman suburban experience. Getting to Giuliano-Dalmata from Rome's city center is straightforward. Metro Line B serves the area, with stops like Laurentina providing easy access. This makes it a convenient base for those looking to experience both the bustle of the city center and the calm of the suburbs. The best time to visit is during spring or autumn, when the weather is pleasant for exploring the district's parks and appreciating its unique architecture without the extreme summer heat.
