What makes Italian Art Walking Tour a unique experience ?
San Pietro in Vincoli (Saint Peter in Chains) is a Roman Catholic church in Rome, best known for being the home of Michelangelo’s statue of Moses, part of the tomb of Pope Julius II. San Pietro in Vincoli was built during the fifth century to house the relic of Saint Peter’s chains when he was imprisoned in Jerusalem. The Basilica San Pietro in Vincoli is well worth visiting not only because of its unique decoration and Michelangelo’s massive statue of Moses, but because it is unlike any other Roman church.
Campidoglio, also known as Monte Capitolino, one of the seven hills on which Rome was founded. Piazza Campidoglio was created at the behest of Pope Paul III Farnese, to impress the Emperor Charles V.
Piazza Navona is one of the most beautiful squares in Rome. This square is famous for having 3 fountains. The most famous fountain, located in the middle of the square is The Fountain Of The Four Rivers, designed by Bernini, who was commissioned by Pope Innocent X. The fountain represents the four main rivers, the Nile, the Ganges, the Danube, and the Rio de la Plata.
In Piazza Navona we will also find the famous Church of Sant’Agnese in Agone. The facade of the church was designed by Borromini and is located exactly in front of Bernini’s fountain.
The Fontana della Barcaccia is a Baroque-style fountain found at the foot of the Spanish Steps in Rome’s Piazza di Spagna.
The sculptural fountain is made into the shape of a half-sunken ship with water overflowing its sides into a small basin. The source of the water comes from the Acqua Vergine, an aqueduct from 19 BCE.
