Piazza Navona Landscape

The Piazza Navona has one of the more unique shapes and designs to it of all the Piazza's in Rome. Apparently in the guide book it said that this piazza was once flooded by its fountains every August. Then apparently the dwellers of the streets would paddle after the rich who rode around in this unbelievably massive "pool". Above is one of the more famous domes in all of Rome, the Dome of Sant'Andrea della Valle. If we were to have lived in the times of this great flooding, one might have paddled around and admired this magnificent tower above. The domes windows allow a light from above to tear throughout the church, definitely something I recommend giving a look for yourself.
