Marvel at Bernini's St. Teresa in Ecstasy before strolling down the Via del Quirinale - the most important street of Baroque Rome. Along the way view the two most particular churches of the Via del Quirinale - done by the famous artists Bernini (Sant Andrea al Quirinale) and Borromini (San Carlino alle Quattro Fontane). Learn how this rivalry between men marked the city forever.
Enjoy a stunning panorama of Rome from the Piazza del Quirinale at the Quirinal Palace where the President of the Italian Republic currently resides. Descend into the historic center of Rome to gaze in awe at the Trevi Fountain as one of Rome's most famous and must-see monuments. Pass by Piazza Colonna and the Column of Marcus Aurelius on your way to the impressive Baroque church interiors of Saint Ignazio di Loyola. The urban renovation executed by the Popes in the Baroque expanded the grandness of their city as a model after the historic Constantinople.
Pass by the Pantheon on your way to San Luigi dei Francesi to witness the work of the genius of Baroque lighting - Michelangelo Merisi Caravaggio. Your walk through Baroque Rome culminates with the most famous piazza in Europe - Piazza Navona. Experience this characteristic Italian square while enjoying a close up view of Bernini's Fountain of the Four Rivers competing with Borromini's famed Saint Agnes in Agony.
