Piazza di Spagna is one of the most popular squares in Rome, mainly thanks to its iconic staircase and its reputation as a meeting point. Here full of things to see and do. A cultural, artistic, and shopping hub in the heart of the city. Here’s a list of some of the highlights below. The Spanish Steps Built between 1723 and 1725 by order of Pope Benedict XIII, this monumental baroque staircase links the French church at the top of the stairs to the Embassy of Spain to the Holy See at the bottom. Its three tiers are a representation of the holy trinity, to which it is dedicated: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Trinita Dei Monti This impressive twin-towered church sitting at the top of the stairs was built in the 16th century by the French and is actually still a property of the French State today. The Barcaccia Fountain Made to look like a half-submerged boat, its design was inspired by a flood in 1598 when the Tiber River overflowed, and a boat was carried into the piazza and remained there even after the waters retreated. Shopping Hub with branded item around this area.

This large Piazza is centrally located between a few neat parts of town. It also serves as a landmark when wandering around Rome as you can see it blocks away in some directions. The Piazza was very crowded almost every time of the day, except for very early in the morning. Take the time and effort to climb the Spanish Steps to the top. This is one of the great views of the entire city. The Church (Trinity?) at the top of the steps is also worth the visit. There was a lot of talk in travel books/blogs about pick-pocketers. I did not see anybody making a move, but with the crowd size I would not let your guard down. The street vendors on the other hand (like in every other tourist spot in Rome...) will hassle you to death, just learn to say "NO" with your face and hands and keep walking.
