Neptune Fountain in Rome: photos, reviews

About

In the heart of Rome's Piazza Navona, you'll find the enchanting Fontana del Nettuno, a hidden gem designed by the notable architect Giacomo della Porta in 1574. This stunning creation offers a blend of entertainment and historical significance, earning an average rating of 4.8 on Google. Families will particularly appreciate its child-friendly environment.

The main attraction, the Fountain of the Moor, boasts a captivating nautical theme. Originally crafted by della Porta in 1575 and later enhanced by Bernini in 1653, it features a Moorish figure poised dramatically on a conch shell, locked in combat with a dolphin, all surrounded by four dynamic tritons. This rich tableau makes it a must-visit spot, providing not just visual delight but also a deep dive into Rome's historic heritage.

Impressive fountains. It was not as busy as Trevi so you could spend more time enjoying the sculptures.
