|  | Rome under his feet It was my last day on the city, and I’d already saw all the places on my “must see” list; so I went for the secondary targets. One of those was the Stairs of Piazza Venezia. The views from there are really impressive. |
City of contrasts From there you could get a really good idea of what Rome is. You are inside a 19th century monument, looking at a church 400 years older and a Roman Circus of the 1st century AD. | | | Colosseum as seen from Il Vittoriano |

| Santa Maria in Trastevere exterior |
| | The beautiful church Santa Maria in Trastevere deserves a visit by day. The area is not as charming as during the night, but is still a very lively and beautiful neighborhood. |
Amazing ceilings It’s impossible not to pay attention to the precious ceilings of the church. | | | Santa Maria in Trastevere interior |

| Portunus and Ercole Vincitore Temples |
| | Looking for Temples Near the famous Boca della Verita (which I don’t think it’s interesting at all, by the way) there are a couple of beautiful reconstructed Roman Temples. |
Following Michelangelo’s path In the afternoon, I went to Chiesa de Santa Maria Sopra Minerva, a church that holds a fine Michelangelo’s sculpture. | | | Chiesa Santa Maria Sopra Minerva |

| Nightfall from Ponte San Angello |
| | My last memory of Rome While I watched the sun leaving Rome from Ponte San Angello, I promised myself that I would see that view again in my life… |

I invite you to see my Rome Intro photo. I think you wiil like it. I enjoyed yours & agree that Santa Maria is a very beautiful cathedral. We happened onto it by accident & stayed an hour or more enjoying the beauty inside. |
