Mais uma famosa praça de Roma, desta vez no Monte Capitolino entre o Forúm Romano e o antigo Campo de Marte.
No século XVI, por ordem do Papa Paulo III, Miguelangelo criou esta agradável praça que podemos contemplar depois de subir a Cordonata. No topo dessa mesma Cordonata, duas estátuas de Dioscuri, dois gémeos Castor e Pólux que apesar de terem a mesma mãe são de pais diferentes. A mãe era Leda, mulher de Tíndaro (Rei de Esparta) e foi seduzida por Zeus pai de Pólux.
Another famous square of Rome, this time in the Capitoline Hill between the Roman Forum and the ancient Campus Martius.
In the sixteenth century by order of Pope Paul III, Michelangelo created this pleasant square which we can contemplate after climbing the Cordonata. On top of that Cordonata, two statues of Dioscuri,the twins Castor and Pollux that despite having the same mother are from different fathers. The mother was Leda, wife of Tyndareus (King of Sparta) and was seduced by Zeus father of Pollux.
