It is one of the most beautiful squares and one of the most essential places to visit in Rome. In this great square its three baroque fountains stand out: Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi, Fontana del Moro and Fontana del Nettuno. Always in our opinion, the source of the 4 rivers is the most spectacular representing the 4 most famous rivers of that time: the Danube, the Nile, the Ganges and the Río de la Plata.

  • The Pantheon of Agrippa

The Pantheon of Agrippa is one of the best things to see and do in Rome. It is also the best preserved building in the Roman Empire, with an impressive dome that has remained unchanged for almost 2000 years, in which, at the highest part, there is a circular window that illuminates the entire building with natural light. Inside you can find Rafael's grave and a vision that we assure you, is totally addictive. Prepare to return several times during your trip as it is one of the essential places to see in Rome.
