If you love people watching and a great atmosphere come here! Day or night just sit and relax by the foundation, wander round the little shops (there is an amazing smoothie/gelati place as if you walking directly up away from the main street!) They have buskers and artists in the evenings and is totally safe!

Piazza Navona in Rome is definitely one of the city's most beautiful piazzas (piazze). The focal point is Bernini's Fountain of the Four Rivers, a stunning masterwork in true Bernini fashion. Situated near the east bank of the Tiber, Piazza Navona is only a short distance from other hotspots such as the Pantheon and the Spanish Steps. Be wary of the piazza's many restaurant workers attempting to entice you and draw you into their tourist-heavy restaurants. You can get better food on any of Rome's many sidestreets for a fraction of the price. As a general rule, avoiding eating in any piazza in any large Italian city. Period. It will save you a lot of money and you will be able to have a more authentic travel experience.

Popular and Selected Piazza Navona Jun 18, 2006
Rome is famous for its many and beautiful piazzas aka squares.
This one is not an exception. It has an atmosphere popular and selected at same time. There you will find the Neptune fountain, the Moro fountain and the St. Ines Church. Terraces are full of characteristic cafes. If you are walking around the city, take a break here. Enjoy a nice cup of coffee and relax watching the people.

Ons volgende doel was de wijk Piazza Navona. Hiervoor moesten we weer naar de overkant van de rivier dus konden we weer even een stukje pittig doorlopen. Via de Chiesa Nuova, die niet open was, ging het over de Via del Governo Vecchio naar het Piazza Navona zelf. Op dit plein… Rome dag 3 // Rome day 3 |

Piazza Navona Obelisk: again the name states the obvious. You'll find this one in the Piazza Navona atop the Fountain of the Four Rivers.
the Piazza dell'Esquilino Obelisk: This obelisk has a twin! You'll find this one located behind Santa Maria Maggiore… Holy Obelisks, Batman! |

Then I went to Piazza Navona ;) bela! In my way to Piazza Navona I crossed several Piazzas, so beautiful! and the monuments and churches you can find there are just great.

We set off for an excruciating walk
that would begin with Piazza Navona, unfortunately the central column was under
construction but the Piazza was pretty and full of people. We then walked to
the pantheon; so famous I couldn’t believe I entered it. The hole in the
ceiling made my mother laugh as she thought… Walking Day |
