Really nice to look at . On a nice day you can sit on the steps and have something to eat. Last time i went there was a lovely little ice cream shop to the left of the fountain. Not to be missed

Actual name - Fontana di Trevi
Amazing fountain, couldn’t believe it when I saw it. Massive, and to think that they biult it so many years ago! Simply wonderful

In terms of a fountain, yeah it was pretty impressive. Built by Bernini, commissioned by the Trevi family who wanted something not too OTT for their back yard. Well I never.
Most interesting is the top right window that has been bricked up and painted over due to the apparent ghost of the son of the Trevi family who was alledgedly pushed from the window and has haunted the palce ever since. Kinda creepy. Kinda cool.
Worth a visit if you can clear a space big enough to pop an eyeball through and see it for yourself. And you can swat away the little rose vendors and annoying flashing, whirly helicopter things for sale.

Beautiful piece to look at equally in daylight and at night. Extremely popular attraction. Intriqate details-fantastic place to go for art studies, but even though I’m not arty I appreciated all the details and the history behind the Fountain.

A not to be missed tourist attraction. Just sit on the steps and take it all in. The sculptures, fountain and gathering of people. Don’t forget to have some coins with you to make a wish.
