17 Jun 2016 157
The Trevi Fountain, designed by Nicola Salvi and completed in 1762 by Giuseppe Pannini is the largest fountain in Rome and one of the most famous fountains in the world. Standing 26.3 metres high and 49.15 metres wide, the fountain has appeared in films. In Fellini´s "La Dolce Vita" Anita Ekberg and Marcello Mastroianni take a bath here at nighttime. The enduring standard "Three Coins in the Fountain" sung by Frank Sinatra in 1954 was title song of the Academy Award winning film. Millions of tourists still throw coins into the fountain. Estimated 3000 Euros get collected daily - and support a supermarket for poor and needy. To steal coins from the fountain is illegal. Even in the middle of winter, there are lots of tourists here, taking selfies.
