Trevi Fountain Walkway Installed Amid Restoration
News summary

Rome's iconic Trevi Fountain is undergoing maintenance and restoration work, prompting the installation of a temporary suspended walkway that offers tourists a unique perspective on the Baroque masterpiece. The fountain, which typically attracts millions of visitors annually, has been drained, and a small pool temporarily replaces it for coin tossing, a tradition said to ensure a return to Rome. While the restoration aims to clean limestone deposits and grime, city officials are also considering future measures to manage overcrowding, such as timed reservations and possibly an entrance fee. The walkway, which can accommodate 130 people at a time, provides an opportunity to view the intricate sculptures of Oceanus and other features up close, an experience not usually available due to crowds. The maintenance work is expected to be completed by the end of the year.
