We spent the day walking around the area of Piazza di Spagna. A beautiful square, if you will. The Spanish Steps were built between 1723 and 1726. At the top of the steps is Trinita dei Monti. The Barcaccia is the boat-shaped fountain located at the bottom of the steps. We enjoyed some delicious gelato and Rick just had to get some hot, roasted chestnuts.
Our final destination was Trevi Fountain. It is difficult to capture and explain just how gorgeous this sight is. There are tons of coins inside the fountain and tradition states that if you throw a coin in, you will return to the Eternal City. Each year there is approximately 120,000 Euros collected, due to the magnitude of people tossing them into the fountain.
