April 2004 - Rome Italy
Looking towards Via Condotti from the top of the Spanish Steps.
Via Condotti (officially Via dei Condotti) is a busy and fashionable street of Rome,Italy.In Roman times it was one of the streets that crossed the ancient Via Flaminia and enabled people who transversed the Tiber to reach the Pincio hill. It begins at the foot of the Spanish steps and is named after conduits or channels which carried water to the Baths of Agrippa. Today, it contains the greatest number of Rome-based Italian fashion retailers.
What a lot of people in the photo too. Looks like a very popular spot.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen the view from the TOP of the Spanish Steps. Thanks for the different perspective. It looks lovely from up there.
ReplyDeleteI remember visiting the Spanish Steps when I was in Rome. It was crowded when I was there, too!
ReplyDeleteThe colour of the flowers really adds to the scene.
