After a day long strolling through Rome, visiting churches, typical small shopping streets and everything else Rome has to offer, Piazza Navona is the place to sit down, have a glass of wine and enjoy people walking by. Do not forget to visit the beautiful church and to walk around Bernini's Four River fountain.

Spectacular central fountain with a couple of smaller fountains at each end of the piazza. I'd give it at least 4 out of 5 if it wasn't spoilt by the traders. The whole square was full of artists selling paintings and prints taking up far too much room and not much use if you don't want to buy any. They... More

I won't go on about the various characteristics of Piazza Navona's cafes and unpleasant hawkers. These themes have been well documented here. Just a couple of tips for the traveller....if jetlag is keeping you awake, or if you are able to get yourself out on the streets of Rome for an early morning walk, get to Piazza Navona by 7.30am...

An abundance of watercolor artists, some of which are very talented. A pleasurable visit. The Piazza is lined with a large number of outdoor restaurants with passable Italian food.

If you want to sit and watch the world go by then this is the place to do it! Full of atmosphere with lots of cafes, restaurants, street entertainers, local artists etc. Highly recommended but a bit pricey!

lovely piazza covered with artists (portraits, selling paintings etc) which is fun to wander around. never felt harrassed to buy anything. surrounded by cafés, trattorias etc, lovely fountains and buildings. worth adding to the list of things to see - maybe stop and have a drink or meal

Piazza Navona is absolutely gorgeous. The three fountains are just amazing. People watching is great here. If you are into art, this is also a great place, with lots of vendors. Lots of restaurants and bars, but very pricey if on the Piazza. It's also worth a second visit at night, with musicians and all the fountains lit up. There... More

Beautiful setting in the middle of Rome. Fantastic to just sit and people watch over a drink. Restaurants and bars are slightly overpriced in the area due to the location. Wander up the side streets for cheaper food and drinks. Fantastic artists and street performers throughout the day. If you get a caricature done be ready to get slightly offended... More
