Description:
Warm evening light reveals Rome’s Capitoline Square, monumental palaces, and statues above the city
From an elevated vantage, the Piazza del Campidoglio opens beneath a wide blue sky, its elegant palaces catching the last warmth of the day. Sculpted figures line the balustrade, guiding the eye toward the equestrian monument and the square below. A slender cypress and lush greenery soften the stately architecture, while tiny visitors bring life and scale to this historic summit of Capitoline Hill.
