Spanish steps (Edited)
Its Italian name is “Scalinata della Trinità dei Monti” and composed of 12 ramps and 135 travertine steps, it is considered the widest and longest staircase of Europe, welcoming millions of tourists and Romans who visit at all times of the day.
The ‘Spanish steps’ in Rome, built in Rococo style between 1723 and 1726, are the steps that lead from the Piazza di Spagna square to the French monastery church Trinita dei Monti (built between 1502–1587). There are 135 steps and three different terraces, referring to the Holy Trinity (the Trinità). The top of the stairs near the Egyptian obelisk offers a beautiful view, albeit one shared with throngs of other tourists. The name can be a bit confusing, as the construction of the steps was actually commissioned by the French (Louis XII). In the 17th century, the Spanish embassy was located on the square – ‘Piazza di Spagna’ – at the base of the stairs, hence the name ‘Spanish Steps’. The official name is therefore not Spanish steps, but Scalinata della Trinità dei Monti.

Could not say no to a shot of these , plantnet reckons this could be Digitalis thapsi L / Spanish Foxglove . Nothing to strange basically but I did not plant this at all . And why would I plant something in a gravel covered hardstanding that is just a few feet in front of the garage door ?? How they have survived let alone flower I do not know , but they do look nice among the other low growing bits and bobs that persist in trying an existence in these conditions !!
Shot presented as taken other than a very slight straighten .
