Campo de' Fiori "Rossini": the apartment seen from the Piazza,
the piazza seen from the apt., and the adjacent environs
From the apartment one can have a perfect view of the Piazza
Campo de' Fiori. Also from the square it is possible to single
out the two large windows of the unit, as the photos show. On
one hand you can feel that the apartment is truly part of the
Piazza. On the other hand, while roaming and shopping in the
square, or sipping a drink in a cafe, you will always feel at
home.

The photos below show some details of what can be seen
from the windows of the apartment. Please also refer to
the photos giving a broader view of the Piazza from the
windows, in the apt. presentation (click the underscored
text). |
These two photos show views from the windows to the right. The
Farnese cinema, providing cult movies (in Italian "Cinema
d'Essay") is very near the apartment. It acquired a nearly
mythical reputation among the intellectuals of Rome in the 60s
and 70s. To the right you can see Via dei Giubbonari, the "uniform
makers" street as the name says. Uniforms are not sold
anymore, however the street is still renowned for its clothing
shops.
As mentioned, the Piazza Campo de' Fiori is kaleidoscopic, as
it actually has many functions, staging simultaneously. You
can watch them for hours and hours from the windows of the apartment.
For ex. in the photo below you can see a typical stall of the
market. A band of
street musicians performed after a few minutes in the very same place.

Apart from the famous vegetable
market and the grocery stores, the square is also a meeting
point of intellectuals and a place where cultural events
are staged. Nearby there are many famous palazzi, monuments
and churches. There are also many restaurants, cafes,
bars, shops and tearooms.
