Where else but Bologna would you see a naked Neptune, sculptured fish, and some kind topless of 2-tailed mermaids all on a huge fountain? It really is something to see, especially when it is lit up at night. A true Bologna landmark.

it is a really crowded place but if you go early in the morning you will get a lot of pictures all by yourself!the stroll all around the fountain is also beautifull

This is a nice piazza, full of people. The design is unusual for Italy. We enjoyed the city but this area was a bit too crowded.

Unique and Beautiful with spectacular sirens that must have been a bit controversial in the 16th century! Jean de Bologne is a great artist and his statues are always full of vitality.
