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 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.
