Via Frattina

Connecting close to the base of the Spanish Steps, Via Frattina is a pedestrian-only shopping street mixing luxury and upper-mid-range fashion brands, giving visitors a taste of Rome's high-end retail scene with slightly less intensity than Via dei Condotti. Its solid must-see and trendy scores reflect a genuinely popular shopping destination, while reviewers note that a comfortable budget makes the difference between simply admiring the boutiques and actually shopping in them. The pedestrianized layout makes for easy, unhurried walking without traffic to navigate. It suits travelers looking to combine sightseeing near the Spanish Steps with some upscale window shopping.
