Have you ever been to The Spanish Steps? It’s one of the most famous tourist attractions in Rome and it’s almost always packed with tourists. One thing you may not know is that if you go climb to the top of the steps and turn left there is a huge pathway with tons of greenery and a couple of restaurants that are totally not crowded with tourists.
Most people just go sit on the steps, take their picture then go to the next destination. There is nothing wrong with that, but if you go a little bit farther than what your eye can see and just start walking, you can be amazed at what you can find.
I had no idea I could see such lovely sights at the top of The Spanish Steps! So the next time you go to a tourist attraction, try exploring the area around the attraction, you may be surprised at what you see.
Have you ever seen the Spanish Steps? What did you think?
When I lived in Rome we would frequent the Spanish steps, but there were ALWAYS tourists there! Although it was always annoyingly busy, there is still something wonderful about them. We even had dinner right on the steps one night and it was great.
Wow, you lived in Rome? That must have been wonderful. It’s really a lovely city.
