Alright, leaving the Vatican and walking past the Castle, towards the Borghese Gallery, this is what we will see. We will start by walking by the Palazzo di Giustizia, page 229. We will cross over the Tiber River on the Ponte Cavour. We will pass the Piazza Augusto, page 141, where the Augustus ashes were placed. Some of the pictures don’t make it look very well kept. It is just a big stone circular building with weeds and moss growing around it. We will travel up Via Condotti and make our way to the Spanish Steps, page 134. Then a nice walk through the Villa Borghese, pages 258-9, and finally to Museo Borghese, pages 260-1.

Web-site on the Spanish Steps.

This is web-site I just ran across. It seems to have a lot of pictures and interactive 360 degree views and some audio guides to the Pantheon, Circus, and Coliseum. The audio on the Pantheon was pretty interesting.
