This is a must if it is your first visit in Rome and do not forget to throw a coin inside the fountain so you will be secure to come back again :-) The best is to visit this point of interest at night or early in the morning to avoid the crowd and beware of pickpockets. Close your eyes and imagine Marcello Mastroianni and Anita Eckberg dancing in the fountain in the movie "La dolce vita".
