The trevi fountain is not only a beautiful fountain but has religious significance. It was designed by Nicola Salvi and consists of mythological characters and gods.

The Spanish steps are just 138 steps and so people wonder what really is so beautiful about them. It is a little farther down from the trevi fountain with the fountain of Old Boat at the end.

5. Castel Sant’Angelo

Castel Sant’Angelo

Castel Sant’Angelo is one of the top things to do in Rome. The Castel San’Angelo translated in English is known as the “Castle of the Holy Angel”. The castle is actually a mousalem of a former king of Rome who was known as Hadrian. It was later used as a church and the splendid statue of the Angel right outside the castle presents a beautiful sight. The story of the angel is that the plague of 590 was ended by angel Michael when he appeared on top of the mousalem.

    The Colosseum was built in 70-72 AD … NOT 780 AD. You’re off by ~700 years.
