After visiting Trajan's Column, we crossed a Roman street and came to another square in Rome, Piazza Navona.
Piazza n**ona, located in the historic center of Rome, Italy, is the most beautiful square in Rome, with a wide oval in the outline.
In 1644, Pope Innocent X embarked on a radical Baroque reconstruction – the main monuments of which were two striking fountains designed by Bernini: the Morro Fountain at the southern end of the square and the Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi in the centre
The sculptures in the Fountain of the Four Rivers symbolize the four heavenly rivers (Danube, Nile, Pratt and Ganges) and the four corners of the known world (Asia, Africa, Europe and the Americas).
To the west of the square lies the Church of Saint-Agnèse'agnese), with its concave façade (1653-1657), is the work of Bernini's main rival, Francesco Borromini.
Agnesse was a **religious girl who lived in the 3rd century AD, when **religion had not yet been recognized by the Roman rulers, and the son of the administrator fell in love with Aniese, but Agnesse rejected his courtship, and she, as a **religionist, did not want to marry a heretic, and was eventually **killed.
For the ** faithful, Agnese is the patron saint of chastity, this church is dedicated to her to commemorate her, the location of the church is the place where Agnese was martyred, and her skull is still enshrined in the church.
To the right of the church is one of the many palaces of Innocent X, the Palazzo Pamphili.
The sight of a soldier in armor in the square reminded me of several films about Rome and the term "Roman legion", a term that once terrified the whole world.
This picture made me feel uncomfortable visiting these monuments and meritorious pillars and finally exploded.
Here's what the experts have to say.
The great revival of Rome was based on the suffering of other nations and peoples.
In the past, these pillars and monuments were monuments to the great achievements of Trajan and other Roman emperors, but now, these have become evidence of their aggression and plunder.
The ancient city of Rome, beneath its grandeur, is full of memories of violence, barbarism, plunder and bloodshed.
However, the ancient city of Rome is also a great witness of ancient Rome leading the process of world civilization.
So, this Eternal City, of course, it is great again.
Just as we don't like the violent plundering and gore of ancient Rome, but we praise their great architecture, ......
Just as I was strolling through the square in a trance, I heard the sound of ** in my ears, and I looked up to see a thin old man sitting on a high stool playing a guitar and singing, and a strong fragrance wafted from the surrounding coffee shops. This heartwarming scene brought me back to reality all at once—how thankful we were to live in an era of partial harmony, no war, no killing.
Leaving Piazza Navona, we continue our guided walk through Ancient Rome, falling in love with its streets and alleys ......
Finally, I came to a bustling shopping street and visited duty-free shopping malls such as time-honored Italian leather goods.
Human beings could have created wealth through this interdependence and win-win cooperation, so why plunder and kill?
How I hope that all mankind and all nations can live in peace, that there will be no more wars and plunder, and that they will all be able to ...... friendly exchanges as they are now
