Piazza del Campidoglio

Another view of the beautifully designed Piazza del Campidoglio at the end of my visit.

 

This is considered by many to be Michelangelo's great triumph of architectural/urban design. He added the Palazzo Nuovo (at left here) to form a trapezoidal shaped square and harmonized the facades of the Palazzo Senatorio (centre) and Conservatori (right). Michelangelo's full design was not completed until 1940 when his beautiful floor paving pattern was finally added.
