Porta Angelica, which leads to the
Monte Mario; we advise travellers to ascend
it, to enjoy a beautiful view of Rome and ofits environs.
It is one of the most delightful walks. On the side
of this hill is the.
Villa Madama. It belonged to Margaret of Au-
stria. The small palace which we see was begun
from the designs of Raffaello and finished from those
of G. Romano. The latter and G. da Udine executed
the paintings of the portico and the vault of one of
the rooms, which are now however greatly damaged.
