Rome: Why throw a coin in the fountain when you can throw jade!

posted: Thursday 02 July 2009 by Giorgio in: Travel in Italy News Rome People


The legend has it that by throwing a coin over your shoulder and into the Trevi fountain you will safely return to Rome, but this time something went wrong and a tourist from Shanghai along with his coin saw his precious bracelet disappear into the water. It was a jade bracelet which had belonged to his noble family for generations. At this point the poor man panicked and started to cry blue murder all over the place; a few minutes later several police cars turned up and helped the man to retrieve the precious bracelet from the water.
