This is the last lecture in Roman Architecture,

and I think it's appropriate that I deliver this last

Constantine and a New Rome," on Rome's birthday.

Indeed, this is Rome's birthday today, April 21^(st),

on the 21^(st) of April in 753 B.C., which means that Rome is

And since birthdays are often celebrated with cake and ice

promise that I made to you at the very beginning of the

course of this semester I would recommend four ice cream places

I recommended Tre Scalini in Piazza Navona,

and I recommended the Della Palma that is located near the

And it seemed on Rome's birthday, this was the perfect

thing to begin the lecture with, and that is to round the circle

and make you aware of the two other best ice cream places in

And I show you here, on the left-hand side of the

screen, Giolitti, and on the right-hand side of

And note the birthday balloons, and that I'm enjoying myself

But just so that you know where these are.

You know Rome so well by now that I think I can give you

directions that are going to make sense to you.

You've just been to visit the Colosseum and the Roman Forum.

Maybe you've been up on the Capitoline Hill.

You're exploring the Victor Emmanuel Monument,

and so with your back to the Victor Emmanuel Monument,

look straight ahead and you see the Corso,

the so-called Corso, the street of the racecourses,

toward the Piazza di Spagna, the Spanish Steps.

you're going to notice one, the only department store in

good landmark-- Rinascente, on the right.

You take a left and you're going to see the Column of

Marcus Aurelius, which is a column we didn't

look at this semester, but is based on the Column of

You take a look at the Column of Marcus Aurelius.

You continue into the next piazza, which is the Piazza

Montecitorio, with a great obelisk in the

center and a government building and a couple of hotels.

You stay on the right and you go down that next small street

and you hit Giolitti, which in my opinion is the

It has the best fruit flavors in the city of Rome;

in fact, anywhere in Italy that I know of.

And the second one that I mention to you is San Crispino.

San Crispino is near the Trevi Fountain in Rome.

So you're going to go to the Trevi Fountain in any case,

and all you need to do when you're facing the Trevi Fountain

is to go about two blocks away from the Trevi Fountain and you

It has a smaller selection of flavors, but everything is very,

In fact, they've been such a success that they have expanded

and opened another one near the Pantheon.

So again, back to the Pantheon, down that small street--I

already gave you the directions to Della Palma.

You go beyond Della Palma, you take a left and you'll hit

So very important to share this with you, again before the term

Also, of course, when you're at San Crispino,

And you probably all know the tradition that when you go and

visit the Trevi Fountain, which is always very

crowded--this is actually a small crowd compared to what's

usually there-- after you've looked at it,

and enjoyed it for its own sake and for architecture,

obviously, of a much later period but I think one you can

see is very closely based on a lot of things that we've been

After you've looked at it--and people usually do this right

before they leave Rome; you go up to the fountain,

bring a coin-- it can be an American coin or

an Italian coin or any coin for that matter--

you stand in front of the Trevi Fountain,

the water and not on the side-- but throw it into the water,

and that will ensure that you will get to return to Rome
