Church of Saints Vincent and Anastasius

When we visited Trevi Fountain, it started to drizzle. The fountain was closed for repairs, with scaffoldings in place. We then went inside the church which was somewhat crowded with visitors. It has a beautifully decorated altar and a painted ceiling. The architecture is spectacular with lofty arches. The church is open daily, from 9:00 to 20:00.
