Piazza di Spagna, 00187 Rome Italy
Located in the heart of Rome, this vibrant and elegant square is surrounded by 18th-century buildings augmented by the colorful flowers that adorn the Spanish Steps. The elegant steps by Francesco de Sanctis (1723-1726) consist of twelve flights of varying width, which descend to the scenic Franciscan Church of Trinita dei Monti.
Pretty steps in the heart of Rome
★★★★★
Very pretty steps which I would recommend when visiting Rome. Beautiful fountains nearby also. Definitely worth the visit!

You’ll stumble across this place at some point. Its at the end of a great shopping luxurious street. Loads of people, but hey, you’re in Rome💙you have to see this through. I have been to rome 5 times and have never walked up the stairs. Will do it next time. Loved everything about this area
