- Piazza Navona - Established in the fifteenth century, the Baroque-style Piazza Navona is among Rome’s most enchanting and frequented squares. It is built on the site of the ancient ‘’Stadium of Domitian’’, a horseshoe-shaped arena for foot races from the 1st century AD. The square features three stunning fountains: Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi, Fontana del Moro, and Fontana del Nettuno.
- Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi - The Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi (Fountain of the Four Rivers) is located in Piazza Navona, Rome. Designed in 1651 by Gian Lorenzo Bernini for Pope Innocent X, whose family palace, the Palazzo Pamphili, and the church of Sant’Agnese in Agone, which Innocent sponsored, both face the piazza. The fountain’s base is a basin from which travertine rocks rise, supporting four river gods and an Egyptian obelisk topped with the Pamphili family emblem of a dove with an olive branch. These elements symbolize four major rivers from four continents where papal authority had spread: the Nile (Africa), the Danube (Europe), the Ganges (Asia), and the RÃo de la Plata (the Americas).
- Campo de’ Fiori - In the morning, Campo de’ Fiori is a lively marketplace that transforms into a vibrant nightlife hub in the evening, all set against a backdrop rich in history. Piazza Campo de’ Fiori was historically a site for executions.
- Statua di Giordano Bruno - Piazza Campo de’ Fiori was historically a site for executions. The statue in the center of the piazza commemorates Giordano Bruno, created in 1888 and placed at the exact location of his execution.
- Stadio di Domiziano - Navona Square Underground - The Stadium of Domitian, also known as the Circus Agonalis, was situated north of the Campus Martius in Rome and was primarily used for athletic contests. Piazza Navona is built over the stadium’s interior arena, with the surrounding buildings incorporating the original lower arcades of the stadium.
- Pantheon - The Pantheon is one of Rome’s best-preserved ancient monuments and a prime example of the Christian reutilization of a sacred building originally dedicated to all gods. Located in the heart of the ancient Campus Martius, its grand facade dominates the southern side of Piazza della Rotonda. In 1870, the Pantheon became the burial site for the kings of Italy, including Victor Emanuel II, Humbert I, and Margaret of Savoy, as well as the renowned Renaissance artist Raffaello Sanzio.
- Fontana della Barcaccia - The Fontana della Barcaccia is a Baroque-style fountain located at the base of the Spanish Steps in Rome’s Piazza di Spagna. The fountain features two Papal coats of arms and water flowing from the mouths of two suns, symbols of the Barberini family.
- Trinita dei Monti - The church of Santissima Trinità dei Monti, commonly known as Trinità dei Monti, is a Roman Catholic late Renaissance titular church in Rome. It is notable for its prominent position above the Spanish Steps, which descend to Piazza di Spagna. The church and its surrounding area, including the Villa Medici, are properties of the French State.
- Spanish Steps - Piazza di Spagna, located at the base of the Spanish Steps, is one of Rome’s most renowned squares. It is named after the Palazzo di Spagna, the seat of the Spanish Embassy to the Holy See. Nearby is the famous Column of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary. At the center of the square is the well-known Fontana della Barcaccia, a Baroque fountain sculpted by Pietro Bernini and his son, the famed Gian Lorenzo Bernini.
- Trevi Fountain - The Trevi Fountain, an 18th-century masterpiece in Rome’s Trevi district, was designed by Italian architect Nicola Salvi and completed by Giuseppe Pannini in 1762, along with several others. Standing 26.3 meters (86 ft) high and 49.15 meters (161.3 ft) wide, it is the largest Baroque fountain in the city and one of the most iconic fountains in the world.
