A Roman Holiday: Part Two, Pastel Facades

Here are a few photos of the beautiful apartment and other public building facades that I clicked while I was in Rome. Compared to the greys, whites, and greens of Budapest, Rome chose a much more cheerful colour from the palette, resulting in a city filled with warm hues of yellows, oranges and red along with the contrasting blue and green for its windows and doors. 
There were ornate columns, thick doors as tall as fifteen feet, crosses and emblems of Virgin Mary engraved on some, faces on pediments, and sometimes a (simple) flower pot on the balcony.
