Piazza del Popolo
The main entrance to the city during the days of the Roman Empire, this expansive piazza is the perfect place to begin or end a stroll down Via del Corso, one of Rome’s main shopping streets. Don’t miss the Egyptian Obelisk, dedicated to Ramesses II, which has stood there since the 1500s, or the view of Piazza del Popolo from Pincio Park at the top of the stairs.
