Walking Tour

Stops Included: The Trevi Fountain, Talking Statue "Pasquino", Capitoline Museum

After indulging in Rome's best gelato at II Gelato di San Crispino, turn left out of the shop on to V. d. Lavatore where you will immediately see the Trevi Fountain in front of you which features the first stop and sculpture on our walk, Neptune. Spend about twenty minutes here examining the fine details of this powerful sculpture nestled in the water. After, continue through the piazza, crossing through V. d. Muratte and make a left on V. del Corso. Shortly up the road is Museo del Corso on the right and you will turn right on the street just after, V. d. Seminario. Continuing on this road you will cross just in front of the Pantheon. Definitley take the time to stop in and be enthralled in the beauty and history that surrounds you. Going through the piazza and down Pal. Gustiniani you will come to Corso del Rinasamento which transports you to the entrance of Piazza Navona. Take time to experience everything this area has to offer you. Stop for authentic Italian cuisine while looking out on the vast array of art vendors. In the back corner of the Piazza along V. del Governo Vecchio features Pasquino, the talking statue. This is the official second stop of the walk. Spend time, fifteen to twenty minutes or so, examining and reading the posters still hanging on the statue. Continue through the small alley right in front of the statue which will direct you on to Corso Vittorio Emanuele II. Turn left on this road and continue on the Corso until you see Lgo. Torre Argentina on the right where you will turn, and soon after make a left on V. delle Botteghe Oscure. Make a right at Pal. Multi Bussi, which will enter in to Palazzo Nuovo. Within this Piazza is our third stop, the Capitoline Museum. The museum does have an entrance fee of eight Euros. Spend atleast an hour in this museum looking at the several well known statues and sculptures inside. The two I recommend seeing are Dying Galatian and Discoboulus.
