These water fountains flow constantly with fresh drinking water for anyone to use and they are everywhere in Rome. Covering the spout with your finger forces the water out a hole on top, creating a arch of water at perfect 𝓼𝓵𝓾𝓻𝓹𝓲𝓷𝓰 height. The Romans were/are with us.
Yeah, these are really great.remember running from well to well to get that sweet cold goodness.
I think I have been at exactly this one once lol
Possibly - though they do all look alike! IIRC, this one is on Via dei Cappellari, just south of the junction with Via Pellegrino. I was walking away from Campo de Flori when I took this.
That’s a whole lot of wasted drinking water when a modern drinking fountain would prevent the waste
Clean drinking water is not a scarcity everywhere. I’m pretty sure Rome would shut these down if that was the case.
Water treatment still costs something
Egh, a drinking fountain still sucks… better be a water faucet with control if I’m bein’ honest
Then, I can fill up my water.
You can fill your bottle from these. I’d mark them along my cycling routes and fill up.
I like everything about this except the way you wrote slurping. It’s so weirdly suggestive lmao
