Piazza Navona is a public open space in Rome, Italy. It is built on the site of the Stadium of Domitian, built in the 1st century AD, and follows the form of the open space of the stadium. The ancient Romans went there to watch the agones ("games"), and hence it was known as "Circus Agonalis" ("competition arena"). It is believed that over time the name changed to in avone to navone and eventually to navona.

The Pantheon is a former Roman temple and, since 609 AD, a Catholic church (Basilica di Santa Maria ad Martyres) in Rome, on the site of an earlier temple commissioned by Marcus Agrippa during the reign of Augustus (27 BC – 14 AD). It was rebuilt by the emperor Hadrian and probably dedicated c. 126 AD. Its date of construction is uncertain, because Hadrian chose not to inscribe the new temple but rather to retain the inscription of Agrippa's older temple, which had burned down. The building is cylindrical with a portico of large granite Corinthian columns (eight in the first rank and two groups of four behind) under a pediment. A rectangular vestibule links the porch to the rotunda, which is under a coffered concrete dome, with a central opening (oculus) to the sky. Almost two thousand years after it was built, the Pantheon's dome is still the world's largest unreinforced concrete dome.

Piazza di Spagna ("Spanish Square"), at the bottom of the Spanish Steps, is one of the most famous squares in Rome, Italy. It owes its name to the Palazzo di Spagna, the seat of the Embassy of Spain to the Holy See. There is also the famed Column of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

La Piazza del Popolo est une grande place urbaine de Rome. Son nom en italien moderne signifie littéralement « Place du Peuple », mais historiquement, il dérive des peupliers (populus en latin, pioppo en italien), d'où son nom à l'église Santa Maria del Popolo, située à l'angle nord-est de la place. La place se trouve à l'intérieur de la porte nord du mur d'Aurélien, autrefois la Porta Flaminia de la Rome antique, aujourd'hui appelée Porta del Popolo. C'était le point de départ de la Via Flaminia, la route menant à Ariminum (aujourd'hui Rimini) et la voie la plus importante vers le nord. Avant l'ère du chemin de fer, c'était également le premier aperçu de Rome pour le voyageur à son arrivée. Pendant des siècles, la Piazza del Popolo fut le lieu d'exécutions publiques, la dernière ayant eu lieu en 1826.

The Trevi Fountain is an 18th-century fountain in the Trevi district , designed by Italian architect Nicola Salvi and completed by Giuseppe Pannini in 1762 and several others. Standing 26.3 metres (86 ft) high and 49.15 metres (161.3 ft) wide,[2] it is the largest Baroque fountain in the city and one of the most famous fountains in the world.

Saint Peter's Square is a large plaza located directly in front of St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City, the papal enclave inside Rome, directly west of the neighborhood (rione) of Borgo. Both the square and the basilica are named after Saint Peter, an apostle of Jesus considered by Catholics to be the first Pope. At the centre of the square is an ancient Egyptian obelisk, erected at the current site in 1586. Gian Lorenzo Bernini designed the square almost 100 years later, including the massive Doric colonnades, four columns deep, which embrace visitors in "the maternal arms of Mother Church". A granite fountain constructed by Bernini in 1675 matches another fountain designed by Carlo Maderno in 1613.

It stands on the right bank of the Tiber River and climbs the hill of the same name, dotted with plane trees. It is the Belvedere del Gianicolo, one of the most evocative views of the entire capital. At the center of the large square stands the imposing equestrian statue of Garibaldi, a bronze monument depicting the Hero of Two Worlds on horseback, atop a high marble pedestal sculpted with episodes from his life and allegorical figures of Europe and America. What is most striking, however, is the Terrace overlooking Rome, from which the gaze wanders over the Eternal City and the parade of its many monuments, from the Pantheon to the Altar of the Fatherland, all the way to the Lazio mountains. Whether it's sunrise or sunset, the Belvedere del Gianicolo offers intense emotions at any time of day.
