Via Veneto is a famous street in Rome and has several good hotels there. There are also some good stores near the Via Boncompagni. Another sight on this street is the beautiful American Embassy.

Via Veneto is exactly what you expect. It is the premier street of the district with a fantastic history.

For most people, Via Veneto needs no introduction because of "La Dolce Vita," but while you're in Rome, it's best to experience it first-hand. Be prepared for a bit of a hike. If you start at Piazza Barberini like most people, take your time on the way up and look around. Don't miss the Triton Fountain in Piazza Barberini nor... More
