Of the very few streets irradiating
from Piazza di Spagna (the square with the Spanish Steps), Via della
Croce is perhaps the liveliest, yet it is very quiet too. The photos
you are looking where snapped in January, Rome's coldest month.
As you can see, people can't help enjoying themselves outdoors.
In the street you find fine grocery stores (absent in the other
streets around the Steps), and - on the other end - a vegetable
market at the corner with Via Bocca di Leone (Lion Mouth Street).
Via Bocca di Leone market The Austrian restaurant
There are many typical Italian restaurants, which between March
and late October have their tables outside. Just for a change, we
published the photo of an Austrian restaurant, very cozy inside.
Truly Salzburg, with all its Baroque churches and monuments made
by Italian architects resembles Rome in summer. Rome reciprocates
in winter with its inspiring and classy atmosphere. There are many
similarities between the two cultures, another proof about Rome's
universal role,
as it is the mother of most European towns.

Naturally it will not take long before you remember that you
are in Rome. Via della Croce, with its lively and imaginative
atmosphere, the irresistible smells of restaurants and pastry
shops (like D'Angelo's), its fine boutiques, and its varied,
cosmopolitan people will make you remember that you are in the
heart of the Eternal city. |
