While out in Rome Piazza Navona is a must see place. This piazza’s main focus is the long oval shaped center with three fountains spaced equally from one end to the other. In comparison to The Trevi Fountain, these fountains are a much smaller, but just as beautiful a place to congregate and socialize with friends and family. The largest fountain in the middle is also the most famous of the three. This is the Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi, there
is an Egyptian obelisk designed by Bernini in the middle. This fountain in English means the fountain of the four rivers. Each of the figures on the fountain represent a river from a different continent, the Nile, Ganges, Danube, and Rio della Plata. While at the piazza there are usually many different street performers and here at the furthest fountain there was a group of musicians playing together, and an older couple dancing in the middle of the piazza. This is the exact type of scene you can only find in Italy.
