Great work of art by Bernini. Full of symbolism about the papic dominion over 4 continents. Each statue a river and a continent. Nile for Africa, Ganges for Asia, Danube for Europe, Rio de la Plata for America. They all bring their riches to Rome...

A worthy fountain to visit on any trip to Rome! In the summer there is little shade and many people so have your sunscreen and water! As a bonus there is one of Romes great water spigots in this square to allow you to fill up your water bottle!!

You must definitely visit this square and this fountain in particular. It is beautiful and it can't be admired by pictures alone. Also, if the weather permits, there's really good gelato at the edge of the square.

A beautiful moderate sized fountain in a more open and less crowded square in the evening. There are a few restaurants around the square. The fountain looks other worldly lit up at night.

A must see of course while in Rome. It looks big online or in pictures but it's in a tight place inbetween buildings thus there is a crowd there. Suggest going early in the morning if you want some room.

This is a peace of art! The meaning of that is the four rivers of the world if you like the four corners of the statue.

An amazing piece of art. I suggest to read its description on wikipedia to interpret its statues and its political meaning. Beside that, it's charming and relaxing.
