Located in the heart of Rome, Trevi Fountain is the most famous fountain in the city and a popular must-see tourist attraction.

Originally constructed in 19BC at the end of an aqueduct, it was designed to bring water to Rome from roughly 13 miles away. It took three centuries to complete the fountain, most of which was created by Roman architect Nicola Salvi.

Today, the fountain’s design is a large basin with a semicircular shape sunk just a little below pavement level creating a natural amphitheater for visitors to enjoy. The fountain’s main attribute is a symbolic living scene of Neptune, god of the sea.
