Piazzale Flaminio is a square in Rome (Italy) and the starting point of the Via Flaminia.
It divides the Flaminio and the Pinciano quarters.
Description The square extends just outside the Aurelian Walls. Porta del Popolo, on its south side, connects it to Piazza del Popolo. On its east side there are the neoclassical propylaea giving access to Villa Borghese, designed by Luigi Canina.
In the 1990s, Piazzale Flaminio was the centre for Italian hip-hop and rap music.
The contemporary museum of art and architecture, MAXXI, is close to the square.
