start your visit at piazza del popolo
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 8/1/06
i think every visitor to Rome should start at the Piazza del Popolo. Sit on the steps in the centre of the piazza and the whole of Rome is laid out in front of you. To the left down via del Babuino you will get to the Spanish Steps, straight ahead down via del Corso will be the Vittorio Emmanuel monument, the forum and the Colisseum, and to the right down via Ripetta will take you to Piazza Navona and then the Vatican. Try it, it will be fun.
