Some of the most notable towns in the Castelli Romani are Frascati, Castel Gandolfo, Grottaferrata, Genzano di Roma, Nemi, Ariccia and Albano. These towns are popular destinations for tourists and Roman residents looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy the tranquil countryside. Special features of the cities are: Frascati's magnificent castle (Frederiksberg Castle in Denmark is said to be a copy of this). Castel Gandolfo is the town where the Pope has a summer residence. Nemi is particularly famous for its forest strawberries and Lake Nemi, Genzano in particular for the Genzano Flower Festival and Ariccia for its wonderful porchetta.

In addition to wine production, the region is also known for its gastronomic specialties, including porchetta (long-roasted pork), Castel Gandolfo cheese, truffle salami and country bread.
