Trevi Fountain

This scene has been wandering around social media a lot. Remember when Emily threw a strike of coins? It feels so romantic not just the person but also the place. Fun fact about Trevi Fountain, if you throw a coin with your back to the fountain, using your right hand over your left shoulder, legends say your first coin means you’ll return to Rome, the second brings love, and the third leads to marriage. Is it true? Well, that’s the charm of Roman folklore and part of the fun is believing it.

We think it’s effortlessly romantic! Oh, look! Our escapist gets proposed at Trevi Fountain, do you think they tossed that third coin and it actually landed in the water? Maybe… and that’s what makes it magical.

The Colosseum

Another must-visit spot is The Colosseum. Many people say it’s so Rome-coded, and honestly, we couldn’t agree more. The scene where Emily and Gabriel ride their motorcycles past the Colosseum is so simple, yet it carries this warm, cinematic charm that makes the moment unforgettable.

There are so many great photo spots around the Colosseum since the place is massive, and every angle gives off a totally different vibe. Here are two more spots you shouldn’t miss if you want to capture some unforgettable moments with your loved ones.

Spanish Steps

You might recognize these steps from an Emily-style photo moment, yes, the iconic Spanish Steps! They’re far from ordinary; they’re a romantic and stylish landmark that feels alive with every visitor who stops to admire them.
