Once the site of an ancient stadium used for athletics ("agones"), the Piazza Navona is arguably Rome's most famous piazza. It was renovated during the reign of Pope Innocent X in the middle of the 17th century and contains some of Rome's most spectacular monuments such as Bernini's "Fountain of the Four Rivers."
