Additional Information
Introduction
Located between the Palazzo Senatorio and the Capitoline Museums, the Piazza del Campidoglio is a square planned by Michelangelo and Pope Paul III in as early as 1536, built in an effort to impress Charles V during his visit to Rome. The square is significant, facing away from the Roman Forum and turning instead to the city's Papal center, a sign of the new Rome. Most of the actual construction occurred after Michelangelo's lifetime, and the Piazza was finally complete in the 17th century.

the palaces where designe by Michelangelo, the big statue on the horse iss Marco Aurelio. it is beatiful, only 10 minutes walking. by the stairs there are couple sphinx
Love this Square on top of Capitoline Hill, designed by Michelangelo in the 1500s. Trapezoidal theme with an oval geometric design laid into the ground to give it an optical allusion of being larger than it really is. Very active during the day with city government housed in the center building and the popular, Capitoline Museums on either side. Lots of places to sit and soak in the history and ambiance of Rome and to admire the beautiful statutes dating back to the 1st century.
Piazza del Campidoglio! Look and stay with her mouth open! is one of Michelangelo's masterpieces!
Spectacular spot, designed by Michelangelo. Don't skip the museum. Its got some awesome archeological finds.
