When Emily arrives in Rome, she visits the Colosseum. The Colosseum was once a site where epic gladiator battles were conducted. It is an architectural masterpiece and takes travellers back in time. Absolutely nothing beats visiting the Colosseum in person. Literally no trip to Rome is complete without visiting the Colosseum.
2. Trevi Fountain
In the show, Emily is introduced to the Roman tradition of tossing a coin in the Trevi fountain. The Trevi Fountain is a stunning masterpiece of Baroque art. People toss a coin in the fountain and make a wish. Rumour has it that if you toss a coin over your shoulder, then someday you will return to Rome and might even find some romance.
3. Piazza Mattei
In one of the show’s episodes, Mindy gets inspired at this small square, and she performs a song here. The Piazza Mattei is located in Rome’s Jewish Quarter, which is one of the oldest parts of Rome. The small square has noble palaces surrounding it. In the centre of the square is one of Rome’s most beautiful fountains, the Fountain of Turtles.
4. Janiculum Hill
Marcello and Emily enjoy the Janiculum Hill. The Janiculum Hill is also called the Janiculan Hill and it is one of the most romantic places to visit in Rome.

It offers breathtaking panoramic views of the city.
5. Spanish Steps
Emily and Marcello take a break at the Spanish steps. The steps were built between 1723 and 1726 in the Rococo style. The Spanish steps lead from the Piazza di Spagna square to the Trinita dei Monti. There are around 135 steps with three different terraces. Once on top of the stairs and near the Egyptian obelisk, visitors are treated to a stunning view. ‘Emily in Paris’ Funny Memes and Jokes: ‘When Does Her Visa Expire?’ Hilarious Reactions and ROFL Posts for Those Who Love (or Hate) the Lily Collins Starrer Show.
