Designed by Nicola Salvi was inaugurated in 1735 and is part of Baroque art and is situated on a facade of Palazzo Poli and was born to be the final part of the Vergine aqueduct, an ancient Roman aqueduct.
The fountain is high 26.30 meters wide and 49.15 every day emits 80,000 cubic meters of water. The Trevi's Fountain is characterized by three architectural elements: the travertine facade; statues of Carrara marble and the cliff also made of travertine.
With Rome Tours will be able to know all the protagonists of the Trevi's Fountain. At the center of a large triumphal arch is a statue of Oceanus, 5.8 meters high on a triumphal chariot drawn by two horses driven by two tritons. To the left is the statue of Abundance, while on the left side of the arch is the statue of Health; the whole is surrounded by a decoration consists of 30 species of plants.
The Trevi’s Fountain is the most beautiful fountain in Rome many times used as a backdrop for films that have their own set of the most beautiful scenes in the fountain. The most famous is of a Fellini film "La Dolce Vita", which sees a fascinating Anita Ekberg's dip in the pool, inviting Marcello Mastroianni to do the same.
