The Villa Borghese is Rome's version of Central Park—only with more museums
Rome's greatest central green lung is the Villa Borghese park, 226 acres of gardens, statue- and bust-lined paths, fountains, artificial lakes, a zoo, and theaters (including a replica of Shakepseare's Globe—performances in Italian only, though).
This being Rome, the park also contains a number of foreign academies, institutes, and museums, the best of which are mentioned below.
Renting a bike in Villa Borghese park
It's a pretty big park, so I like to get around by renting a bike.
I usually hit the Bici Pincio octagonal kiosk at the southeast corner of the Pincio area where Viale dell'Orolorgio meets Viale Medici, though here are other rental locations in the park: Viale dei Bambini at Via di Villa Medici; Viale JW Goethe, Piazzale M. Cervantes, Viale dell'Uccelleria near the Galleria Borghese (tel. 339-602-0432; Ascolbike.com), and on Via delle Belle Arti near the Biparco and the Modern Art Museum (tel. 06-881-0219; Ronconibiciclette.it)
Bikes cost about €4 ($5) an hour, or €10 ($12) for the day.
Another favorite activity: rent a paddleboat on the small lake with its weensy 19th-century Greek-style temple on a mini-island (€3 ($4) for 20 min.).
The Pincio and the puppet shows
The Villa Borghese is sub-divided into several different park areas. Make sure you make time for the terraced 19th-century Pincio Gardens rising above Piazza del Popolo.
It offers great views, a nifty old merry-go-round,and an old fashioned Teatro del Burattino (puppet theater) on Viale dei Bambini Villa Borghese, with shows Saturdays and Sundays, and occasionally other days (closed Jan and Aug).

* You can use this formula for all Italian ten-place numbers—so 31 is trent'uno, 32 is trenta due, 33 is trenta tre, etc. Note that—like uno (one), otto (eight) also starts with a vowel—all "-8" numbers are also abbreviated (vent'otto, trent'otto, etc.).
