The Piazza Navona is one of those spectacular places in Rome that you should see at least once in a lifetime. Its history goes back almost 2000 years, and in this video I try to tell you the best parts of it. From the time Emperor Domitian built a sports arena there, to the days they used to flood the place just for fun.
It is a story that involves emperors, popes and a series of artists.
But of course, the most impressive part is the fountain at the centre of the piazza, built by Bernini and unveiled in 1651.
Love your videos! Been binge watching and learning so much! Wonderful work. Thank you and Cheers
Halfway, I thought oh my god he's going to ignore the giant obelisk. Didn't need to worry. Great video once again!

Another very interesting video Carel. I have never visited Rome but the fountains intrigue me as much as the churches. It's amazing that the fountains can serve as critical infrastructure while also being sought after commissions. Art co-opting utility is fascinating. I'd love to know more about the sculptures of the bridges in Rome as well.
Thank you! Yes there are some interesting sculptures on bridges as well.
Thanks!
No, Thank you! you are too kind
Please tell more on Giorgione
The square at the top of The Capitoline Hill is also a piazza
absolutely, and one of these days i will make a video about that one too
Great explanation but it seems that the garden of the Domus Aurea was not a private space, it was a crime to destroy that building for the Colosseum.
Thank'YOU Carel💞☝️👍.
...... 🤫! ... 🤫!.... I can be a 90 percent Northern Italian...but I don't want... 🤣🤣🤣 to.... Sorry! Today I'm sentimental🤗
WHEN ROMAN SPORTS AND WAR GAMES WERE PERFORMED NAKED IN ROME, WOMEN WERE NOT ALLOWED TO ATTEND AND NUDITY WAS A MATTER OF ADMIRATION AND NOT SHAME.
