Why is the water in rome so cold
A Guide to drinking Fountains in Rome (Nasoni) | Walks of Italy
ciao I'm Simona and this is lots of
Italy since antiquity Rome is known as
let Audrina the laptop the queen of
water a good reason think of all of the
great Africa the many fountains the vast
houses throughout the city and get to
hear nothing has changed if you stroll
around the city of Rome today in fact
you'll encounter thousands of fountains
loads of decorational purposes and to
give a drinkable water it's so important
to us that there is even an app you can
download before coming to Rome that
gives you a map with all of the potable
water fountains
so let's go find
Oh
and here we are in one of the most
iconic squares of wrong we are by the
Spanish Steps behind me la barqueta
literally the fountain is called the
Abuelita it looks like a marble sunken
balls it was designed in the 17th
century by the Bernini and yet that's
portable water let's fill up our bottle
Oh
let's use our nests only out fuzzy
fountain that's going to be our next
stop
here we are at the Trevi Fountain this
gorgeous class I'm sure you'll come and
pay a visit here to talk to coins but
the water behind me it's no potable
water although if you're thirsty and you
don't want to spend two euros on a
bottle of water around here through the
spout of clean potable water on the
steps of the fountain
if you want to find out whether the
water is good to drink simply use your
common sense
if the water spout is reachable then
fill up your bottle well in front of
another very famous monument of Rome the
Colosseum we have more fountains to
check out so let's go
we are indeed according to the alley
right across from the Coliseum I found a
very fantastic fountain I couldn't think
of a better way to recycle it for
costigan in ancient Roman to sign of
death
we gave life less to this object through
water life itself
portable clean fresh and after all this
monumental fountain a real we found it
we are by the ancient city this is one
of the oldest cast-iron fountain we have
this since 1870 and we call this nuts on
it look at the spout it's like a big
nose that's what it means it is actually
a dragon Adam we have three of those
well since 1870 this fountain is giving
us
cool refreshing and clean water we check
the actual water of this Mazzoni 2500 of
those about two hundred and fifty two
thousand times a year so it's clean it's
safe and comfortable
bring it empty bottles and always try
some now we are heading to the aventine
hill I'm going to see another special
moves on it and we'll find out why and
here we are on the Aventine field we
made it we are bigger than your ante
clearly the garden of the orange trees
if you make it up here I promise you one
of the most stunning views of the city
and even up here we'll put a sound
another fountain of drinkable potable
water this is actually one of the rarest
because it's the one in travertine
what's special about it the spout the
she-wolf the most symbolic mother of all
of the ancient Romans and the Romans
today so giving us clean water I don't
even need a bottle look perfect
well let's go outside have another two
example of fountain to show you
and after promised just outside of the
garden more fountains but this this is
the king of all of them a zonie the big
noses see this is called mayors water
pit it's free it's for all of that let's
check out the second one I'm sitting on
an ace in Rome and back straight out of
a spa recycled again to be one of our
beautiful deported fountain combined
with a 16th century mass but this unlike
the previous ones it's not potable water
but you see Rome is full of fountains
water everywhere
Rome is truly the queen of water so next
time you come to Rome make sure you
