The first time I saw the Trevi Fountain was about 30 years ago. I was on an organized trip around Rome, seeing all the highlights, when the tour guide led us down a narrow street and into a square, and there it was in all its glory.

The first time you see the Trevi Fountain is an incredible experience, as it’s so unexpected. The streets around it are normal and the last thing you expect is to turn a corner and see this beautiful, large, ornate fountain dominating the small square.
