The Iconic Trevi Fountain: An Enchantment of Water and History in Rome!

Welcome to the Trevi Fountain, one of the most famous and loved attractions of the Eternal City!

An oasis of water and sculpture: The Trevi Fountain is a Baroque marvel designed by sculptor Nicola Salvi and completed in 1762. This magnificent fountain is a riot of statues and artistic details, with the god Oceanus driving a chariot pulled by sea horses and tritons. The central theme is the ocean, paying homage to the power and grandeur of the seas.

Legends and traditions: According to tradition, anyone who throws a coin into the fountain with their right hand while turning their backs will return to Rome in the future. If you wish to find love, flip two coins; to get married, three. But be careful: the tradition also involves throwing the coins with the left foot on the stone and the wish will be granted!

Icon of cinema: The Trevi Fountain has played a memorable role in cinema. The iconic scene from Federico Fellini’s “La Dolce Vita”, in which Anita Ekberg dives into the fountain, made this place even more famous and left an indelible mark on the collective imagination.

Night Light and Magic: The Trevi Fountain is even more fascinating at night, when it is illuminated by soft lights. This is the perfect moment to admire the magical and romantic atmosphere that surrounds the fountain when the sun is hiding.

Visit the Trevi Fountain and let yourself be fascinated by its timeless beauty!
