Trevi Fountain


Today I visited the Trevi Fountain for the first time. I had seen many pictured of it before but it was amazing to see in person. The Trevi fountain is filled with coins, and it is said that if you throw money over your shoulder into the fountain you will return to Rome. It was much larger than I had pictured once actually seeing it in person. It was actually pretty busy when we were there with lots of people taking lots of pictures, and discussing it's beauty. The noticeable tour groups were huddled around the fountain listening to their tour guides. This again was a very populated area of not only tourist but locals enjoying the beautiful fountain and stopping in local cafes to get their afternoon cafe.
