ITALY
Around Rome

 

Communion
Interior Courtyard
you would never know such a pleasant interior was hidden behind the brick
Basilica di Santa Maria degli Angeli
we were taken by how seamless the previously Roman building was set next to the modern building to the left
Campo dei Fiori
and statue of Giordano Bruno
not the greatest photos and the square was kind of full of people with Rick Steve's books, but I felt moved by the heretic Bruno
Unknown Church
Mithraic Shrine
in basement of Basilica di San Clemente
Piazza Navonna
we loved the tartufo in the square here!
Scala Santa
Church of San Giovanni in Laterno
supposedly the 28 steps from Pontius Pilate's house that Jesus ascended to be condemned to death
Basilica di Santa Maria degli Angeli
this church used to be one of the biggest baths in Rome
Swift in flight
The Tiber
Trevi Fountain
cool statue but so overrun by tourists as to astound
Monument to Vittorio Emmanuel
not much to see but the view from the top was impressive
