Trevi fountain


    After returning to our hotel at about 3.00 we had arrest and got back on the bus at 4.00, we drove to the centre of rome to do a guided town tour. This building is the prison, right in amongst residential.


   The Pyramid of Caius Cestius was built around 12 BC by praetor Caius Cestius as his tomb


   The Aurelian Wall is a large defensive wall that was built in the third century AD to prevent attacks on the city of Rome. The wall encircled the city's seven hills and incorporates a number of large historic structures.




   The Thermae Antoninianae (Baths of Caracalla) opened in 217 AD, during the reign of Emperor Caracalla, as the largest bath complex in the world. The baths were functional for over three hundred years.

   The Spanish Steps are a set of steps in Rome, Italy, climbing a steep slope between the Piazza di Spagna at the base and Piazza Trinità dei Monti, dominated by the Trinità dei Monti church at the top. The Scalinata is the widest staircase in Europe.



   Streets and buildings along the way





   The Fontana di Trevi or Trevi Fountain is the most famous and arguably the most beautiful fountain in all of Rome. This impressive monument dominates the small Trevi Square located in the Quirinale district.
 



   Just thrown a coin in the trevi fountain, of course the coin in the right hand and over the heart and throw over the left shoulder to make a wish
