Once a grand entrance to Rome, the Piazza del Popolo still is a majestic square with an Egyptian obelisk, lush fountains, and no less than three churches on its sides.
It was still early when I entered the Piazza del Popolo, and I took advantage of my early arrival to explore the square. Almost inevitably, I was drawn towards the obelisk, taken from Egypt 10BCE, and one of the tallest of Rome. It is surrounded by Egyptian lions spurting water into the surrounding fountains. When the Piazza del Popolo got its current design by Giuseppe Valadier between 1811 and 1822, he created a balanced square, with two groups of fountains on the east and west side of the square, with different neoclassical statues on either side. Their appearance and sound add to the peaceful setting of the square. Piazza del Popolo is not car-free, but traffic is smartly guided behind the semicircular walls defining the contours of the square. I walked past the so-called Tridente: from the south-side of the square, where the Santa Maria dei Miracoli and Montesanti churches stand, three streets lead southwards: the Via di Ripetta, via del Corso, and Via del Babuino.
