The largest, the most pompous, the most popular among tourists ... All this is about the Fontana Trevi in ​​Rome, lined up in front of the majestic Pali Palace Poly. Created according to the sketches of Bernini - the famous theatrical sculptor, - today it is considered a mandatory place of pilgrimage among tourists.

Legends and traditions

There is a tradition according to which it is necessary to turn your back to the fountain and throw a coin into it. Everyone who produces such a ritual will return to Rome again. At one time, the city administration, concerned about the state of the fountain, forbade tourists to throw coins into it. But the tradition has returned anyway, and today anyone who wants to visit Rome once more always goes to the Trevi fountain and throws a coin into it.

According to another belief, lovers who want to never part with each other should drink water from the "tubules of lovers" located on the right side of the fountain.

How to get

You can enjoy the spectacle for free. To get to the fountain, you need to get to Piazza di Trevi: for this you need to go from Via del Corso to Via delle Muratte.

Especially beautiful is Trevi closer to evening and night. Water, illuminated by light bulbs, makes a fabulous impression. Involuntarily you begin to believe that the fountain has magical properties!

Fountain-Shock. February 23, 2015

Of course, this is a very beautiful fountain. And all who go to him, in advance already know about it. But at the same time, no, I think that there is not a single person who would not have experienced a shock at the moment when they see him. Of course, people vary in their degree of impressionability. And this shock can be very small or very large - but it always is. When it opens before you, it's impossible not to be stupefied! We were in Rome bypass (unfortunately), had to spend the night and go further along the route in the morning. Our hotel ... Read full review

This object is required to visit in Rome! Frankly, the Trevi Fountain made the most impressive impression on me when I first visited this legendary city. It's hard to say why, because in Rome there are so many bright historical sights, like anywhere else in the world. In fact, this object is not very large, but it produces exactly a powerful effect. You just shudder when it opens before your gaze. And it is precisely that which opens, so it is architecturally located. One of the unpleasant moments ... Read the whole review

Miracle fountain. August 21, 2014

If you want to get the most possible impression from visiting this landmark, I would advise you to look at pictures less often with images on the Internet. Although not! Look! anyway, when you see it, you will be amazed. The fountain is located on a small square, in which several streets are pouring in. And from this still such a vivid impression. When you come out of a narrow street and your gaze opens a grandiose beauty in beauty, you will simply be dumbfounded. There is a touching sign, ... Read full review

adored by me Trevi! December 21, 2013

Someone wants to see the Colosseum, and my dream was the Trevi Fountain.
It's very easy to find a walk in the center of Rome with any guidebook, or you can come by metro (a subscription for a day will cost about 6 euros).
Talk about the beauty of the fountain is endless! There are always a lot of tourists here, and on the weekends there just is not enough to get through, so I strongly advise you to be more careful with your things and look after your photographic equipment!
Around the fountain there are many small cafes and shops with souvenirs. The prices are overestimated, but ... Read full review

In Italy, I traveled with my friends, from the Catholic Church, to see all the sights of Rome. If you go on an excursion organized by the church, the trip is much cheaper than if you use the services of tour operators.
Through narrow streets and a lot of restaurants, cafes and shops, we found ourselves at one of the most beautiful sights of Rome-Trevi Fountain, which was built almost for 30 days. View the fountain converges very many people who throw ... Read full review

In November last year, they made an unforgettable sightseeing tour around Italy. In Rome we came from Siena. And my first acquaintance with Rome is a visit to the Trevi Fountain. Climbing the Spanish Steps, passing by the chic Roman hotels, we were in the Trevi Square next to this masterpiece of Italian architecture. Lit by the gentle autumn sun, the fountain made an indelible impression. In the center of the Trevi Fountain is the figure of the god Neptune, surrounded by the figures of newts pointing the path between the rocks .... Read the entire review

Lika

The Trevi Fountain impressed me with its beauty and grandeur even before I first saw him live last summer. If you have seen the old Italian film Dolce Vita, then you definitely dreamed (or still dream of seeing this beautiful fountain one day!), As I dreamed about it for four years.
From the very beginning of the tour of Rome, I was looking forward to when we finally come to the Trevi fountain, so when our group finally came out to him, I was infinitely happy!
The fountain itself is amazing ... Read the whole review

The business card of Rome September 27, 2013

Anna

was here in January 2013

The Trevi Fountain and the usual fountain are hard to name. This is a whole separate structure with descending streams of water. The fountain is so large that it is very difficult to fit it into the frame. Together with the facade of the adjacent building, it does give the impression that it is the most luxurious palace with such a decorative wall. In fact, the fountain is separate, the Palazzo Poly is separate. The number of tourists near the fountain is amazing. The people are sitting on the stone benches surrounding the fountain, crowding in the square in front of it. Relax, ... Read the whole review
