The Spanish Steps and Piazza di Spagna
The graceful steps built in 1725, elegantly curve their way from
the Piazza di Spagna to the Church of Santa Trinit dei Monti, a
pastel tinted neoclassical building. The shopper's paradise of Via
Condotti leads back from the Spanish steps to Via del Corso, and
during spring the steps are decorated with pink azaleas. At the
foot of the steps lies Bernini's boat-shaped Barcaccia fountain and
to the right is the unassuming Keats-Shelley Memorial House.
Transport: Take Metro Linea A to the Spagna stop; bus 60 and 492 to Piazza Barberini or 117 to Piazza di Spagna
