 Piazza di Spagna
The Spanish Steps and Piazza di Spagna were once literally Spanish belonging to the area around the Spanish ambassador's residence, located in the western end of the hourglass-shaped piazza since 1622. This characteristic feature of eighteenth-century town-planning in Rome projected by Francesco De Sanctis, offers an extraordinary background effect to many of the beautiful monuments and buildings found near them such as the majestic sixteenth-century façade of the Trinità dei Monti or the famous Fontana della Barcaccia.
Designed by Pietro Bernini these steps form one of the city's most singular monumental and urban complexes. The 137 steps were constructed from 1723 to 1725 to link the Piazza di Spagna and led to important locales above it, including the Pincio and the Villa Mèdici. When the steps first opened, Romans hoping to earn extra scudi (a form of money) as artists' models flocked to the steps dressed as the Madonna and Julius Caesar. This tradition still holds today with modern artists immersed in the midst of tourists. The beginning of May heralds the world-famous flower show, when the steps are covered with azaleas and photographers, and each July an evening fashion show is held on the steps. A genuine monumental grandeur and true Roman landmark. |
 Via Condotti
Considered the Rodeo Drive of Rome, Via Condotti is without a doubt the place to find shops where one can find authentic 'Made in Italy' designer clothing such as Gucci, Ferragamo, Versace, Trussardi, Prada, Valentino, Armani, Dolce and Gabbana. Fine leather goods and accessories by famous names such as Louis Vuitton and Bally, to name a few, are also found here. World famous jewellers including Bulgari and Cartier among others have also taken their place on Via Condotti. This shopping street also leads you to Via Veneto, the Spanish Steps, and many other nearby shops where one can continue their shopping day of buying or just window browsing. |
