NORTH-WEST VIEW FROM THE TERRACE: CAMPO MARZIO AREA, NAVONA, PANTHEON, QUIRINALE HILL |
Towards North-West, from left to right you see first a procession of domes: the Church of Sant'Andrea della Valle of the Teatine Order is the 2nd highest in Rome after St. Peter's. You see then the Ch. Sant'Agnese (St. Agnes), by Rome's most genial architect Francesco Borromini, which faces Piazza Navona. Between its dome and its right belfry you can see in the distance the pointed belfry of the Ch. Santa Maria dell'Anima, an Italian Renaissance church nowadays the church of the German community in Rome. Just after you see the Monte Mario hill, Rome's highest with the Janiculum, although both are not included in the famous 7 hills. It hosts an Astronomical Observatory, and at its feet one finds the Olympic Stadium (not visible in the photo). Next comes the Palace of the High Court of Justice, surmounted by its imposing quadriga, dubbed by Romans "Palazzaccio" (ugly palace, because it is pompous and it doesn't appeal to the Italian taste). You see then the spiral dome of the Ch. St. Ivo alla Sapienza, another marvel of F. Borromini, two turrets one of which belongs to the Germanicum, the institute forming German priests, followed by the flying saucer shape of the dome of the Pantheon. Its architect was emperor Hadrian, and it is the best preserved ancient monument in the world, and still the largest dome in Rome (43.3 Mts), larger than St. Peter's. To its right you can see the dome of the Ch. of San Carlo al Corso, and in the distance, the pine trees of the Borghese Gardens. You can also see the top of the Ch. of Sant'Ignatius of Loyola (founder of the Jesuites), followed by the dome of the Ch. of Jesus (Chiesa del Gesu') the main church of the Jesuite order. To the right of the dome you can see the top part of Palazzo Quirinale, one of Europe's largest palaces, formerly the town palace of the Popes, and now of the Italian President of the Republic. Finally you can see Palazzo Mattei, a famous historical aristocratic palacei |
