Trevi Fountain stripped naked!

 

Not your standard tourist shot

Its not likely that you will see the magnificent Trevi Fountain in Rome so barren unless your sight seeing day kick starts at sunrise, and even then this is not a daily occurrence. I am an early riser who enjoys walking most mornings sifting through my thoughts before the bustling crowds start to assemble.  If you rise earlier than most when in Rome you will surely be in for a few treats uncovering sights that most tourists don’t get to see, and if you stroll past the glorious Trevi Fountain you may be lucky enough to get a glimpse of all those millions of wishes floating around the globe.
 
Thousands of euros must be thrown into the fountain each day, every week the fountain is drained, coins are collected and put aside to help Rome’s needy!
 
Legend has it that if you throw a coin with your right hand over your left shoulder you will return to Rome again one day!
1 coin and you will return to Rome one day
2 coins and you will return and meet your love
3 coins and you will return and marry your love
 
I wonder what happens if you toss more than three?!  I’ve certainly tossed more than three coins and I keep returning every year, I’m sure the wish just grows stronger as the tradition lives on.
