Piazza della Repubblica
Designed during the urban redevelopment undertaken after Rome was declared capital of Italy, the Piazza della Repubblica is one of the most important squares of the city, and extremely striking.
The Piazza della Repubblica is made up of a large roundabout with an exquisite fountain, surrounded by imposing buildings on one side and a seemingly demolished temple on the other.
It was formerly known as the Piazza dell'Esedra because it was laid down on the remains of an exedra (a semi-circular open room with seating) from the Diocletian era.
Fontana delle Naiadi
At the centre of the Piazza della Repubblica stands the majestic Fontana delle Naiadi. It was constructed between 1870 and 1888 and decorated with four lion sculptures. In 1901 the lions were replaced by the statues of four nude Naiads (water nymphs). Their nudity was subject of much controversy at the time.
One of the most beautiful squares
The Piazza della Repubblica is a main point of interest in the city. After visiting the square and discovering its grandiose buildings and romantic Fontana della Naida, we recommend walking to the nearby Baths of Diocletian and visiting the Basilica of Santa Maria degli Angeli.

::Una delle più belle piazze di Roma. Da visitare assolutamente.

::正面の共和国広場には素晴らしい噴水があった。駅は小さく少し薄暗いので特に混雑時はスリなどには注意したほうがいいと思います。

::Repubblicaで、スリに財布を盗られた。 犯人は12~13才の女の子。白人、黒人、東洋人のいずれでもない子。 battistini行きのホームで女の子5~6人でタバコを吸っていた。そのグループから離れた所から電車に乗ろうとしたが、電車が入って来たら一人が走って来て同じドアから押す様に入ってきた。そして発車直前に降りて行った。 不審に感じてふとショルダーバッグを見ると、チャックが開いていて、財布が無くなていた。 皆さん、注意してください!!!
