Fodor's Expert Review Trinità dei Monti
Piazza di Spagna
Church
Free
Standing high above the Spanish Steps, this 16th-century church has a rare double-tower facade, suggestive of late–French Gothic style; in fact, the French crown paid for the church's construction. Today, it is beautiful primarily for its dramatic location and magnificent views. The obelisk in front was moved here in 1789, but dates back to the early years of the Roman Empire. It opens late on Wednesday.
