One of the characteristic places in Rome where the atmosphere is pleasant. Well known for its staircase leading to Trinité-des-Monts.

Not to be missed. In the lively Piazza di Spagna, you'll find the Palazzo della Propaganda Fide, a major training ground for those who spread the word of the Counter-Reformation. At the foot of the famous Trinità dei Monti staircase, the Barcaccia fountain by Bernini, father and son, dates back to 1629. To build it, Bernini's son had to overcome a number of technical difficulties: hydraulic pressure was too low to create jets of water, so the sculptor imagined a sunken boat taking in water from the stern and bow, in the middle of a barely larger oval basin.

Une place resplendissante et très animée de Rome, allez la voir le soir lorsqu’elle est illuminée, la fontaine en bas des marches est superbe.

Nous avons beaucoup apprécié le côté animé de la place. L'environnement, les immeubles, la fontaine, tout est magnifique. Néanmoins, l'église de la trinité est actuellement en travaux. Dommage. Je pense que cela aurait été encore plus beau.

Une des places les plus vastes et animées de la capitale italienne, où il règne toujours une ambiance agréable et cosmopolite. Située dans un quartier de rues commerçantes ; de là on accède à ND trinité du mont par les escaliers ou l'ascenseur.
