Shopping in Rome is one of the best in Italy. Rome is not the Fashion Capital of the World but it has the Fashion Headquarters of Valentino and Fendi. These are one of two great fashion houses in Italy. One of the most famous places in Rome is the Spanish Steps. The Via Dei Condotti which is ed at the bottom of the Spanish Steps is lined with most of the High end Fashion Boutiques.
