   30m · Admission ticket not included
   Colosseo and Palatino area
2. Trevi Fountain
   20m
   Trevi Fountain is the most beautiful fountain in Rome. Measuring some 20 meters in width by 26 meters in height, Trevi Fountain is also the largest fountain in the city.
   
   The origins of the fountain go back to the year 19 B.C., in which period the fountain formed the end of the Aqua Virgo aqueduct. The first fountain was built during the Renaissance, under the direction of Pope Nicholas V.
   
   The final appearance of the Trevi Fountain dates from 1762, when after many years of works at the hand of Nicola Salvi, it was finalized by Giuseppe Pannini.
   
   Interestingly enough, the name of Trevi derives from Tre Vie (three ways), since the fountain was the meeting point of three streets.
   
   The myth of the Trevi Fountain
   
   Why are there always people in the fountain throwing coins into the water and taking photos of themselves?
   
   The myth, originating in 1954 with the movie "Three Coins in the Fountain," goes like this:
   
   If you throw one coin: you will return to Rome.
   
   If you throw two coins: you will fall in love with an attractive Italian.
   
   If you throw three coins: you will marry the person that you met.
   
   In order to achieve the desired effect, you should throw the coin with your right hand over your left shoulder.
   
   An interesting statistic is that approximately a million euros worth of coins are taken from the fountain each year. Since 2007 this money has been used to support good causes.
   
   The most beautiful fountain in the world
   
   For us Trevi Fountain is the most beautiful fountain in the world. Whether under daylight or warmly lit up at night, the fountain is never lonely.
   
   One thing that can dampen the mood is that the area is full of people trying to sell roses in a pushy way, but simply ignoring them is enough to be able to continue enjoying such a special place.
3. Spanish Steps
   30m
   The Spanish Steps (Scalinata di Trinità dei Monti in Italian) were built at the beginning of the eighteenth century connecting Piazza di Spagna and the Church of Trinità dei Monti. It is one of the most famous parts of Rome.
   
   Every July, the square and the 135 steps are decorated to receive the Donne Sotto le Stelle fashion show.
   
   The staircase is a favourite spot among tourists to sit, relax and enjoy the views of Piazza di Spagna.
4. Pantheon
   30m
   The Pantheon, completed in 126AD, was a Roman temple with a surprising oculus that is the building's main source of natural light.
   
   The Pantheon of Agrippa, also known as the Roman Pantheon, is one of the architectural masterpieces of the Italian capital. It is the best preserved building from ancient Rome.
   
   The construction of the current Pantheon was carried out during the reign of Hadrian, in the year 126 A.D. The name of Agrippa comes from the place in which the current building is built, which was previously occupied by the Pantheon of Agrippa, built in the year 27 B.C and that was destroyed in a fire in the year 80 A.D.
   
   At the beginning of the 7th century the building was donated to the Pope Boniface IV, who transformed it into a church, in which function it currently finds itself in a perfect state of preservation.
5. Piazza Navona
   20m
   Defined during the fifteenth century, the Baroque-style Piazza Navona is one of the most charming and popular squares in Rome.
   
   The public square is built on the site where the Stadium of Domitian (Circus Agonalis), founded in 86 AD, once stood. It could hold approximately 20,000 spectators, which came here to see different athletic competitions.
   
   The most beautiful parts of Piazza Navona are its three fountains, designed during the papacy of Gregory XIII:
6. Colle del Gianicolo
   20m
   Gianicolo is situated just outside the ancient city and is a great place to visit to get away from the bustle of Rome. Not to mention that the panorama from the top of the hill is breath-taking.
7. St. Peter's Square
   30m
   St Peter’s Square or Piazza San Pietro is probably one of the world’s most famous squares and one of the most breath-taking. Designed by Bernini during the seventeenth century, it houses over 300,000 people.
   
   St. Peter's Square is one of the largest and most beautiful squares in the world. It is located in Vatican City, at the feet of St. Peter's Basilica.
   
   The dimensions of the square are spectacular: 320 meters long and 240 meters wide. In the liturgies and more noticeable events St. Peter's Square has held more than 300,000 people.
   
   The construction of the square was carried out between 1656 and 1667 at the hand of Bernini, with the support of Pope Alexander XII.
