Most of Florence has been tried, tested and proven to be truly spectacular. But there’s one place in Italy’s Unesco-protected ‘Capital of the Arts’ that remains largely undiscovered.

Veneto has so much more to offer than Venice and Verona.

Forget the beautiful Italian beaches of Sicily or the Amalfi coast, one tourist decided to take a dip in the Trevi Fountain instead.

The sightseer was hauled out of the famous pool by Italian police after jumping in on July 27.

Lukas Vöhser Falcón, 18, caught the moment the man was escorted out of the Rome tourist attraction while visiting the fountain with friends.

Hundreds of stumped tourists watched on as the unknown man waded into the water before officers intervened.

Lukas, a mechanical engineering student from Spain, said: ‘Our last stops were Rome and the Amalfi Coast.

‘I was recording a video of the fountain and I saw the man jump in.

‘I think he just did it for fun – but five seconds later the police came and took him.

‘I don’t know where – I guess he went to the station.

‘Everyone was so surprised when it happened.’

This is not the first time a holidaymaker has decided to immerse themselves in the historic fountain.

One tourist from New Zealand was fined 500 euros (£431) after jumping in to the landmark in February.

Rome’s Capital Police told CNN that ‘alcohol was definitely involved’.

The Trevi Fountain was built in the 1762 and is a focal point for visitors who want to throw coins into the pool for good luck.

Over 1 million euros (£862,000) worth of coins are chucked in each year.

The attraction became so flooded with tourists that the Italian capital decided to introduce a new queuing system this year.

This keeps visitors in a queue of 400 people at a time, but they won’t have to rush as they walk from one end of the fountain to the other.
