The Fountain of Trevi is one of the most famous symbols of Rome: every tourist route includes it because the tradition says that people who come here and throw a coin in this fountain tourning one's back to it, will propitiate a next and happy return to Rome.

It is an imposing fountain, placed on a side of a palace, in a small piazza connected by narrow streets of the historical centre. The fountain represents Ocean on a cart drawn by sea horses and tritons, from where spreds out water divinding in hundreds trickles over the many statues downside.

This monument celebrates the great aqueduct in Rome carrying the drinking water to the city, built in 19 b.C. by Agrippa, which ended right in the place where is the fountain.

Near the Fountain of Trevi there is the baroque church of the Saints Vincenzo and Anastasio, built by will of Cardinal Mazarino in 1650, whose facade recalls the Greek temples with its porch with columns before the entrance portal.

At a short walking distance by the Fountain of Trevi there is Piazza del Quirinale with the Presidential Palace, once political seat of the Pope and its Curia at the times of the Church's State and nowadays official seat of the President of Republic of Italy.
