Crossing this bridge you'll find yourself before long in the Piazza del Popolo. There are Metro stops (Ottaviano and Lepanto) just a couple of blocks north.
Prati is also a great area if you love architecture as there are beautiful buildings here with early XX century architecture almost unique in Rome!
