Rome 4-1
Fontana di Trevi
Fontana di Trevi in Rome is a favorite place. Here I have one photograph taken with my camera by a young woman from Japan in a cheerful group, which come downstairs where I am sitting and enjoy the presens of beauty and the atmosphere around the fountain. Manners and customs is to turn your back to the fountain and over the neck throw a coin, at the same time promise to come back to Rome and it is said to become true. All coins is collected by the catholic church, who use the capital in their activities with the poor.
