Climb the Spanish Steps

Climb the renowned Spanish Steps in Rome to admire the ever-bustling setting of the Eternal City. Connecting the Piazza di Spagna and the Piazza Trinita dei Monti, the stairs are among the most popular landmarks of the city, which became famous after being featured in the movie "Roman Holiday" starring Audrey Hepburn. Visitors and locals alike use it as a meeting point or simply as a place to watch the world go by, so sit down and feel the time stop for a second amid the haste of life.

The Spanish Steps have a total of 135 steps; in fact, they're among the widest staircases in Europe! At the base of it, you'll find the Fountain of the Ugly Boat, while the top is dominated by an imposing obelisk. In addition to that, the house of the English poet, John Keats, currently open as a museum, is also located by the well-known site.

Bear in mind that landmarks such as this are popular among pickpockets as well, so make sure to keep an eye on your belongings.
