Description of object“Navona II” is a wonderful apartment in Vicolo di Montevecchio, an ancient street of 16th century Rome, a few steps away from Piazza Navona and Pantheon, in the best part of the city. Even if this area is full of tourists, this small street, being so narrow and very hard for cars to pass, still maintains calm and fashion of “walking Rome”; the street market which takes place every day just behind the street, in Piazza del Fico, is a proof of vitality of this part of the city. The apartment has a living room with a double sofa bed, a double bedroom, a bathroom with shower and a cooking area equipped with everything you can need. The decoration is of high class as this location deserves. The apartment has air conditioning, heating , bed and bath linen are provided.
Location of objectThe modern piazza is a lively place, a place where both locals and tourists like to hang out. Artists gather in the sqaure to paint and there are many entertainers and vendors selling souvenirs. At night the square is packed with people but if you want to really appreciate the beauty of the square itself, it\\\'s best to go in early morning to avoid the crowds.
Town: Italy, Piazza Navona, RomePiazza Navona is one of the most wellknown squares in Rome. It is built on the site of the Stadium of Domitian, built in first century AD, and follows the form of the open space of the stadium. [1] The ancient Romans came there to watch the agones (\\\'games\\\'), and hence it was known as \\\'Circus Agonalis\\\' (competition arena). It is believed that over time the name changed to \\\'in agone\\\' to \\\'navone\\\' and eventually to \\\'navona\\\'.
Defined as a public space in the last years of 15th century, when the city market was transferred to it from the Campidoglio, the Piazza Navona is now the pride of Baroque Roman architectural and art history. It features sculptural and architectural creations: in the center stands the famous Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi or Fountain of the Four Rivers (1651) by Gian Lorenzo Bernini; the church of Sant\\\'Agnese in Agone by Francesco Borromini and Girolamo Rainaldi; and the Pamphilj palace also by Rainaldi and which features the gallery frescoed by Pietro da Cortona.
The Piazza looking southThe Piazza Navona has two additional fountains: at the southern end is La Fontana del Moro with a basin and four Tritons sculpted by Giacomo della Porta (1575) to which in 1673 Bernini added a statue of a Moor, or African, by Bernini, wrestling with a dolphin, at the northern is the Fountain of Neptune, Rome (1574) created by Giacomo della Porta. The statue of Neptune in the northern fountain, the work of Antonio Della Bitta, was added in 1878 to make that fountain more symmetrical with La Fontana del Moro in the south.
At the southwest end of the piazza is the ancient \\\'speaking\\\' staute of Pasquino. Erected in 1501, Romans could leave lampoons or derogatory social commentary attached to the statue.
During its history, the piazza has hosted theatrical events and other ephemeral activities. From 1652 until 1866, when the festival was suppressed, it was flooded on every Saturday and Sunday in August in elaborate celebrations of the Pamphilj family. The pavement level was raised in the 19th century and the market was moved again in 1869 to the nearby Campo de\\\' Fiori. A Christmas market is held in the piazza.
