🇮🇹 Trevi Fountain (Fontana di Trevi)
🏛️ The Basics: Rome’s largest Baroque fountain (25.6m tall, 19.8m wide). Made famous by Roman Holiday 🎬—now a must-visit for wishes and selfies. Legend says: Toss 1 coin = return to Rome; 2 coins = love; 3 coins = marriage (or divorce?!). 💦 History in a Nutshell: Built at the end of the Aqua Virgo aqueduct (19 BC), which supplied water to ancient Rome for 400+ years. Pope Nicholas V started its Renaissance-era makeover (1453), but the dramatic Baroque design we see today was finalized in 1762 after decades of work. Fun fact: The "snout fountain" (Fontana dei Trevi) nickname comes from its original location at the intersection of three streets (tre vie). 💰 Coin Toss & Charity: €3,000/day in coins are tossed! 💸 Funds support a Rome supermarket for the needy (though thieves sometimes try to fish them out 🎣). 📸 Pro Tips: Go at dawn for a crowd-free experience. Stand to the right side for the best photos. Use wide-angle mode to capture its grandeur! #TreviFountain #RomanHoliday #BaroqueBeauty #ItalyTravel
