Fountain in Piazza Navona, Rome

This is the front of a fountain in the popular tourist spot, Piazza Navona, in central Rome. This area is filled with restaurants and street vendors, and is a prime location for one of my favourite activities to do on holiday, people watching.

Italian Government Building

Last post I showed a picture of the view from Castel Sant'Angelo looking towards the Italian Government Building; this time, I'm in front of it. 

Looking at the Italian Government Building

I was able to take this photograph from one of the many vantage points at the top of Castel Sant'Angelo. This time I was looking southwest towards the Pantheon, which is shown on the left edge, and the Italian government building, the one with the statues on the top. 

View from the top of Castel Sant'Angelo

This photograph is the view from the top of Castel Sant'Angelo looking down upon the Tiber river which runs through Rome. The bridge that is shown in the picture is known as the Ponte Vittoria Emanuele II. 

St. Peter's Basilica at Mass

This building featured in this photograph is the front of St. Peter's Basilica. I took this photograph from where I was sitting at a Wednesday morning mass in Vatican City during my vacation to Rome.
