A meeting point, meeting place, or assembly point is a geographically defined place where people meet. Such a meeting point is often a landmark which has become popular and is a convenient place for both tourists and citizens to meet. Examples of meeting points include public areas and facilities such as squares, statues, parks, amusement parks, railway stations, airports, etc. or officially designated and signed points in such public facilities. There is often a public sign designating an official meeting point in public facilities (see illustrations).

gathering points/areas
The meaning of the Italian expression is this, as Sara was trying to point out: the places where people gather, where they go/pass/get together.
An example: the railway station or the airport, the Fair/Expo quarters.
