Piazza del Popolo

31-Dec-2013 • Rome Italy

Now that I have visited Rome, I now know my way around should I return soon. Truthfully, I do hope I go back ASAP as I am in love with Italy. It is one of my favorite countries in the world hands down. We found out that Piazza del Popolo is not hard to reach. Imagine Via del Corso sandwiched by two piazzas. The Piazza de Venezia in front of the Monument to Vittorio Emanuele on one end while the Piazza del Popolo is on the other.

Marc and I went through this gate to see what was on the other side. We didn't go any further though. Maybe we should have. What do you think? Did we miss anything?

People, people, everywhere. I guess there really is no off season for Rome.
