Piazza della Riforma (Reformation Square)
Piazza della Riforma (Reformation Square) Review
In the early 19th century, several buildings were torn down in order to enlarge the square—providing more room for the present-day café tables. Commonly referred to simply as "La Piazza," it's the social and cultural heart of the city and the site of outdoor markets and open-air concerts.
