OWithout
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 Hotel 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.
