Rome, capital of Italy, is a magical city where past and present coexist intertwined. Who decides to spend just one day in Rome you do that already knows the city or they definitely will. If we had only one day in this fantastic city has some views that we can not stop doing, including going to see the legendary and famous Trevi Fountain.
Located in the downtown, the fountain is a symbol of Rome. I have heard many say that travelers are more striking than expected because they find it almost without seeking it. What impact can cause if you walk half lost in these winding streets!
The Trevi Fountain was finished in 1762 by
Giuseppe Pannini, after design and construction by other artists and architects passed over several decades. The protagonist of the Neptune fountain in the car which is pulled by sea horses and tritons. The Trevi Fountain has a harmonious symmetry given by the figures frozen in positions of movement. This is definitely shocking when one admires the source: it is as if we pause and wait because at any moment the figures continue their movement.
Among the many legends surrounding this work of art, he says if you throw a coin into the fountain and ensures their return to Rome. This fantasy makes daytime visitors pull about 3,000 euros that are collected at night by the authorities and for grants. Obviously the methodology of how to pull the currency has been refined: with his left hand on right shoulder, making frog or with eyes closed.
Currently the Trevi Fountain has a constant police presence. The agents monitor anyone intending to La Dolce Vita and take a dip in the waters of the source (after a bath he took a tourist from Milan in 2007) and to prevent some attacks from environmentalists and social activists who have colored the waters of the fountain as a protest.
An unforgettable place and unavoidable if they think to spend just one day in Rome. Other plans to complete our day in this city: Roman Forum.
