The Spanish Steps are a popular meeting place and people watching the place, that you can expect plenty of people around. In the mid-afternoon, you’ll notice that the Spanish Steps are terribly crowded and we wouldn’t recommend bringing a stroller here. You won’t enjoy climbing 135 steps carrying your stroller through the crowd. If you have your stroller and don’t want to climb the steps, then you can find escalators at the metro stop for Piazza di Spagna. If you visit there in the morning (i.e. before 9 am), you will find them to be less busy.

Villa Borghese Gardens

It’s a perfect spot for an escape from sightseeing and crowded tourist attractions. The Giardino del Lago is a beautiful shaded area with benches to stop it.
