Piazza del Popolo is the prelude to the center of the most beautiful city in the world. Put on the cusp of a triangle of streets, known as the “Trident” (via del Corso, via Del Babbuino and via di Ripetta). It constitutes the greatest access to the heart of Rome. The door through which you access this wonderful “saloon” is the ancient Porta Flaminia. So called because through it in the past you could acces to the ancient Via Flaminia. The twin churches “Santa Maria di Montesanto” and “Santa Maria dei Miracoli”, the Flaminio obelisk (the oldest and second highest of Rome) and the two fountains of Valadier contribute to enrich this fascinating “Piazza”.
