Lago con il Tempio di Asclepio is an artificial lake in Villa Borghese, a large park in Rome. In the middle of the lake is a small temple dedicated to Asclepius, the god of medicine in Greek and Roman mythology. The temple was built in the late 18th century by Antonio Asprucci, who renovated the park on behalf of Prince Marcantonio Borghese. The temple has a round shape with four columns and a dome, and contains a statue of Asclepius with a staff and a snake.

Nicely landscaped lake where you can go boating. Here you will also find dozens of turtles, snack options etc.

One of the villas in the center of Rome. Inside there is the Bioparco (ancient Zoo), the panoramic terrace of the Pincio overlooking Piazza del Popolo, Piazza di Siena, home to horse riding competitions and then the Borghese Gallery, the Water Clock, the pond and much else
