The architecture of both the church and the fountain is fantastic, we absolutely enjoyed being there at night! You can expect to find very good street artists . This is must when you visit Rome.

Naoki Ferrio

The famous Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi or Fountain of the Four Rivers is here. The fountain was built to represent the 4 continents :Asia, America, Europe and Africa. Many sculptures and beautiful views

Serdar

"Ars longa, vita brevis" words take their meaning in this square with a Baroque ambiance. Just leave yourself to the beauty of art created by Bernini and Borromini.

Shamsa Abdulrahman

A great space surrounded by cafes and restaurants . Perfect place for coffee and dessert while you watch tourists walk around & admire the fountain

BEST square in Rome. Trevi is popular but Navona is on another level! Check out the fountain of the rivers , learn about the underground stadium and sculpture contests. Not too crowded . Xmas shows 👌.

Situated where the Stadium of Domitian once was, Piazza Navona exemplifies the Baroque Period with creations by Bernini and Borromini. It is a great place to people watch .

Vasek S.

Love this place! Wonderful fountains , beautiful colors of building, lot of people there all the time... Enjoy this place and relax!

Rafal W.

With its ornate fountains , baroque palazzi and pavement cafés , it is central Rome’s showcase square. It sits on the site of an ancient monument , in this case the 1st-century-AD Stadio di Domiziano.

Picturesque piazza with artists and shops. Take a leisurely walk through and sit by the fountain .

Another must see Rome sight, but its crowded and touristy

Slava

One of the most beautiful squares in Roma ❤️

Rox Pantangco

Look for 3 Roman fountains :The Four Rivers (middle),The Moor (S) & The Fountain of Neptune (N). Don't miss San Luigi Dei Francesi which houses some Caravaggios and is a short walk from here.

funky flavor

Very chill to sit and have a drink. Not kuch to do besides sitting and looking at the view and see the people passing.

Ali Latifi

It's well-located and good for hanging out, but like most famous piazzas the restaurants are more expensive so you can say you ate facing the piazza.

M Aldoss ♏

Famous Square in Rome !!! Surrounded by nice Restaurants and Coffee Shops .

Marco Ortiz

Great place to hang around, beautiful founts and several places to eat in the surroundings.

Lindsay D'Andrea

Don't let the crowds scare you away. Take your time people watching , and if you're learning Italian, this is a good place for some eavesdropping practice :)
