The Majesty of One Fountain

Trevi Fountain

Travel is all about new and unexpected experiences. Those experiences can arrive by getting lost in the winding ancient cobble stone streets of a neighborhood. Which consistently happens to me, no matter where I go.

This time though was different. I still got lost, of course. The unexpected for me was surprisingly a tourist destination. The Trevi Fountain. It may be classified as a fountain but that distinction does nothing to prepare you for the grandeur and elegance of this “fountain.”

The Trevi fountain is massive and magnificent. It takes up the entire side of a building and has a pool large enough a person could probably swim laps. Though I wound’t recommend that. It was wildly popular when I went. So, I didn't throw any coins in but there is always next time.
