I got to know about the Trevi Fountain listening to Connie Francis bellowing out the song ‘3 coins in the fountain’ and that was years ago.

I always wondered what it would be to visit there and my dream became a reality when we went on that package tour of Europe.
Rome had other attractions and one that I was fortunate to visit was the St Peter;s Basilica. I will only cover my experience of the Fountain here.
That excitement to be personally there and throw those 3 coins cannot be explaianed.
I did make those wishes but I do not remember what they were now.
There were swimmers in that water body collecting those coins. They must be collecting countless Liras every single day. Nice idea to make money.

A wonderful shot. I was in Italy, but I did not visit this place.
Nice fountain, hope to be there one day in my life.
Keep hoping I did that and it happened☺️
I haven’t been there yet, so I can’t go back…
Another mystery!! Why can you not go back?
because I’ve never been there yet. I can’t go back until I’ve gone there once…
Sounds like a wonderful fountain. I have only seen it in movies.
My passion for travel has taken me places.
Italy is my neighbor and I have been repeatedly in Rome and the Vatican
I went to Vatican too but we spent just a few hours there The Pope was not there and so there was no one at the window.
Never left the US but this is an amazing building and fountain.
I love travel and have covered a bit of India too This fountain is of world fame.
I’ve never been overseas. Sounds like a great trip. Thanks for posting.
I bet that was a great trip. The only countries I have been to is Mexico and Canada. I would love to visit. Great shot, that water looks so pretty.
I would love to swim here
