Day 2: Sight-Seeing in Trevi District, Rome (Part 2)

After visitng the Colosseum, next destination was the Trevi Fountain at the Trevi District.



love the beautiful building structure along the way



Finally we got to see the real Trevi Fountain which has appeared in a number of movies. Some facts about Trevi Fountain from Wikipedia: Standing at 26m high and 20m wide, it is the largest Baroque fountain in the city, and one of the most famous fountain in the world.

A traditional legend holds that if visitors throw a coin into the fountain, they are ensured a return to Rome! No harm trying, so remember to toss a coin into the fountain!!

We wanna come back to Rome again!! =p

A University where majority of the students are priests, seminarians and members of religious orders
