Rome Piazza di Spagna apartments for rent, bed and breakfast, vacation rentals in Rome : district Piazza di Spagna

The area of the Piazza di Spagna is certainly one of the most interesting ones of the city: the high concentration of monumental, religious, and natural beauty in its surroundings have made it one of the most visited places in the capital.
The element of which many other wonders are situated around is the Scalinata della Trinità dei Monti (Spanish Steps), it consists of a series of spectacular ramps leading from the square to the Franciscan Church of Trinita dei Monti, which is set along the road leading to the terrace of the Pincio and Villa Borghese.
The plan of the staircase is shaped like a butterfly and is a sort of stage set outdoors where fashion shows of international standard and film sets are taking place.
Since the early '50s, coinciding with the beginning of spring, the entire staircase is covered with azaleas of different varieties, one of them is just called "Bianca di Piazza di Spagna”, which is selected not only because of the colour but also for its ability to adapt to the climate of the city.
As part of the Christmas festivities, a historic nativity set is build at one of the terraces of the steps, set in the Rome of the 800th.
