The Trevi Fountain, located in the heart of Rome, is one of the most famous fountains in the world. It was designed by architect Nicola Salvi and completed in 1762. The fountain stands 26.3 meters high and 49.15 meters wide, showcasing a stunning Baroque style that attracts millions of visitors each year.
At the center of the fountain is a large statue of Oceanus, the god of the sea, flanked by two horses representing the contrasting moods of the sea: one calm and the other wild. Surrounding the statue are various other figures and decorative elements that emphasize the fountain's grandeur.
Visitors often toss a coin into the fountain to ensure a return to Rome, a tradition popularized by the film 'Three Coins in the Fountain.' The water that flows through the Trevi Fountain is sourced from the Aqua Virgo aqueduct, which has been delivering fresh water to the city since 19 BC.
