It took a bit of digging to figure out what this was since I didn’t really know where to start. If I have my information correct, this is the Altar of the Fatherland in Piazza Venezia.
I had no idea what it was when I took the picture. I had arrived in Rome in the afternoon and once I found the hostel I just started wandering around into the evening… Either it’s perfectly safe to wander haphazardly around Rome at night or I was just unaware that it wasn’t.
