This notable street southwest of Piazza Navona is filled with cafes, decorated restaurants, boutiques and home to some of the best tiramisu and porchetta you can find in Rome.

Hotel Campo de' Fiori

Hotel Campo de' Fiori
@itslauraining
By far one of the most beautiful hotels in Rome. It sits just a few feet away from the bustling Campo within a smaller and more quiet piazza. Covered in leaves, it creates the perfect contrast with the surrounding façades and windows.

Via dei Coronari

Via dei Coronari
@itslauraining
This charming street is quintessential Rome. Lined with shops of all kinds from leather to gelato. Walk the street from the top of Piazza Navona and make your way west to find endless opportunities for photos and then sit to enjoy an afternoon spritz.

This restaurant on Via della Lungaretta in Trastevere should be on a postcard or a movie set. A must-visit for the cuteness.

Side Street Views of the Altar of the Fatherland

Altare della Patria
@itslauraining
One of the coolest ways to observe this massive monument is not from directly in front, but from a side street. For a really unique view and photo opp, find a small side street nearby where you can find the monument towering in the background.

Relais Trevi Fountain

Relais Fontana Di Trevi
@itslauraining
This tiny rooftop bar is just steps away from the Trevi Fountain yet still remains out of sight from the swarms of tourists. They open the bar around 12pm. Enter the hotel and head up the stairs. At the top will be an elevator to the roof. You will find unmatched views of the Trevei Fountain in an intimate setting. Come for a mid-day spritz or evening negroni before dinner.

Piazza of the Knights of Malta

Piazza of the Knights of Malta
@itslauraining
A true gem that is off the beaten path of the city's main attractions in more of a high-scale residential area. You will find a piazza with orange trees, green parakeets, and sweeping views of the city. Not to mention an infamous keyhole where the dome of St. Peter's Basilica in the distance fits perfectly in the frame. Fantastic photo opps here.
