Trevi Fountain

The Trevi Fountain is one of the main attractions of Rome. It was completed in the 18th century and contains a huge statue of Neptune, the Roman god of the sea. Tradition says that if you throw a coin over your shoulder into the fountain, you will definitely return to Rome someday.


Pantheon

This 1800 year old building is one of the best preserved ancient structures in Rome. Its name literally means "all the gods", which is fitting since it was built in honor of the Roman gods.
