Without doubt one of the most impressive
buidlings in the Eternal City located in Piazza Colonna
and very near the official merchandising store of
AS Roma the official soccer team in Rome.
Happily here at the Belli Guest
House Rome we are not politicians but football fans
therefore our guests include people who are more interested
in the Stadio Olimpico and Roma store than the Italian
Parliament.
The parliament itself is informally
known as Piazza "Colonna" - due to the presence of
a huge obelisk in the middle of the square - the square
is a strict no go area whenever the Italian parliament
are in session. Unfortunately this 360 degree virtual
photo of the Parliament was taken very early in the
morning - we suggest you go and see it during the
day time on a Sunday as it is surely one of the most
impressive buidlings to be found in the Eternal City
Rome.
Be warned though that due to the
increased security some restrictions may be enforced
to stop you taking photographs of this highly sensitive
building.
Did you Know? Italian parliamentary
debates are often very heated and several times a
year end up in a free for all with blows being exchanged
by the various political parties.
