Place: Piazza
di Spagna (The Spanish Steps)
Notes: The Piazza de Spagna was built in the 17th century
to house the Spanish Embassy. The Spanish Steps were built in the
1720's to link the square with the French church of Trinit'a Dei
Monti. Tourists and Romans alike, use the steps for a gathering
place to mingle and relax.
Not to be missed: The exclusive stores and elegant coffee
shops in the surrounding area, called Via Condotti.
