Piazza Campo dei Fiori (or Campo de' Fiore) is a rectangular piazza near Piazza Navona in Rome. Campo dei Fiori, translated literally from Italian, means "field of flowers." The name, no longer appropriate, was first given during the Middle Ages when the area was actually a meadow. The picture just catches a bit of the Piazza and the open air market that is held there daily.
