1 min walk
Piazza Navona
Rome’s most famous Baroque square, with Bernini’s Fountain of the Four Rivers and the dome of Sant’Agnese in Agone. Magical at dawn, before the crowds arrive.
Nearby
From Casa Lumen you can walk to the finest squares and monuments of Baroque and ancient Rome. Here are our favourites.
5 min walk
Pantheon
Almost two thousand years old and still the world’s largest unreinforced concrete dome. Worth seeing in the rain, when it falls through the oculus.
5 min walk
Campo de’ Fiori
A market of fruit, flowers and spices in the morning, a lively square at night — surrounded by bakeries, wine bars and historic trattorias.
12 min walk
Trevi Fountain
A stroll through the lanes, past the Pantheon — go early in the morning to find it almost empty.
12 min walk
Castel Sant’Angelo
Cross the Tiber on the Bridge of Angels; from the castle terrace the view reaches all the way to St Peter’s.
18 min walk
Roman Forum
The political heart of ancient Rome: temples, triumphal arches and the Via Sacra. A pleasant walk via Largo Argentina and Piazza Venezia.
25 min walk
Colosseum
Carry on past the Forums to reach Rome’s great symbol. Book online and pick the first entry of the morning.
