Trevi Fountain
One of the most famous fountains in the world, the Trevi Fountain in Rome is an unmissable sight when visiting the romantic city. Sandwiched between a number of small streets in the heart of Rome, the Baroque-style fountain depicts Oceanus, God of water surrounded by the statues of Abundance, Salubrity, tritons and hippocamps.
Built using local Travertine stone in 1762, Trevi Fountain stands 26 feet tall and 49 feet wide, so has naturally required some renovation over the years, most recently in 2015. After the Fendi-sponsored restoration three years ago, now is the best time to visit Trevi Fountain in Italy and admire the iconic masterpiece in all its glory.
Myth of the Three Coin
The tradition of coin tossing in Trevi Fountain came about after the
1954 film, Three Coins in the Fountain. Now a legend; using your right
hand to throw over your left shoulder, toss in one coin to ensure your
return to Rome, two coins for your return and to meet new romance, and
three coins for your return, love and marriage.
