The Spanish Steps, one of the most popular meeting places in the city, are a real hive of social activity and a great place to stop in a pavement cafe in the Piazza di Spagna and people watch. Make sure you actually climb the steps, which are highly impressive, rising over 12 flights up to a church flanked by beautifully carved sculptures.
Alternatively, depicted on postcards and prints alike, the Trevi Fountain is undoubtedly the most iconic in Rome. Located in the quaint Piazza Trevi, it is a real sight to behold and will have you harking back to the days of glamour and glitz seen in many Hollywood movies. Also a popular meeting place for Romans, toss a coin in the fountain and you’ll return to Rome on holidays!
