Stop At: Piazza Navona, 00186 Rome Italy

You’ll stroll through the bustling Piazza Navona, named the most beautiful square in Italy, which houses three magnificent fountains including the famous Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi (Fountain of the Four Rivers) by Bernini. Piazza Navona is also one of the liveliest squares of Rome with several quaint outdoor restaurants and cafes.

Duration: 15 minutes

Stop At: Piazza del Popolo, 00187 Rome Italy

Piazza del Popolo is a large urban square in Rome. The name in modern Italian literally means "People's Square", but historically it derives from the poplars (populus in Latin, pioppo in Italian) after which the church of Santa Maria del Popolo, in the northeast corner of the piazza, takes its name.

The piazza lies inside the northern gate in the Aurelian Walls, once the Porta Flaminia of ancient Rome, and now called the Porta del Popolo. This was the starting point of the Via Flaminia, the road to Ariminum (modern-day Rimini) and the most important route to the north. At the same time, before the age of railroads, it was the traveller's first view of Rome upon arrival. For centuries, the Piazza del Popolo was a place for public executions, the last of which took place in 1826.

Duration: 15 minutes

Stop At: Chiesa di Santa Maria del Popolo, Piazza del Popolo 12 Campo Marzio, 00187 Rome Italy

Santa Maria del Popolo, in Piazza del Popolo, was one of the first Renaissance churches in Rome. In the Chigi Chapel, created by Raphael, are ceiling mosaics and pyramid-like tombs as well as statues by Bernini. The Chigi Chapel represents Earth on the Path of Illumination in the movie and book.

Duration: 15 minutes

Stop At: Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi, Piazza Navona, 00186 Rome Italy

The Fountain of the Four Rivers is an elaborated work of art is designed by Bernini, one of the most famous artists of his time. Created between 1648 and 1651, it is the largest and perhaps the famous artwork that Bernini ever built. This unique fountain can be found at Piazza Navona.

In the fountain there are four different figures of gods, each representing different rivers from different continents.

Duration: 10 minutes

Stop At: Pantheon, Piazza della Rotonda, 00186 Rome Italy

Rome's Pantheon, the ancient temple of all the gods, was built between AD 118-125 by Emperor Hadrian. Its dome was the largest dome ever until Brunelleschi's dome at the Florence Cathedral was built in 1420-36. In the 7th century, it was made into a church by early Christians but it's still the best-preserved building of ancient Rome.

Duration: 15 minutes

Pass By: Museo Nazionale di Castel Sant'Angelo, Lungotevere Castello 50, 00193 Rome Italy

Castel Sant'Angelo was designed by the architect Demitriano and built between 123 and 129 A.D.; according to the wishes of Emperor Hadrian, to serve as his mausoleum. The 'Hadrianium' dominated the landscape, its massive hulk consisting of three overlapping cylindrical structures, surrounded by a circular façade, topped with a bronze chariot featuring the Emperor dressed as the sun god. Inside, a spiral ramp, which still exists today, descended to the passageway which led to the grave, which housed his remains for 72 years.

With the addition of the Mura Aureliane (Aurelian wall) in 271 A.D., which fortified its strategic southern flank, the structure was converted from mausoleum to military fortress.
