The Fontana
di Trevi, scene of movie star Anita Ekberg's late-night dip in La Dolce
Vita, is a flamboyant baroque ensemble of mythical figures and wild horses
taking up the entire side of the 17th-century Palazzo Poli.
After a
Fendi-sponsored restoration finished in 2015, the fountain gleams brighter than
it has for years.
The tradition is to toss a coin into the water, thus ensuring
that you'll return to Rome – on average about €3000 is thrown in every day.
