Fountain. Cool. Lots of people. Everyone's trying to take a picture. The marble from which it is made has already been "worn to holes".

The fountain was built in 1627(1628) — 1629 by Pietro Bernini, father of Giovanni Lorenzo Bernini, commissioned by Pope Urban VIII. The fountain received the name "Barkaccia" (longboat) due to its shape of a half-submerged boat and was installed in memory of the flood that occurred in 1598, when a boat ran aground on the flooded square.

It's beautiful, but there are a lot of people. It is impossible to examine the fountain.
