The fountain of the Naiads and the exedra of piazza della Repubblica in the evening in Rome, Italy. The majestic Fontana delle Naiadi was constructed between 1870 and 1888 and decorated with four lion sculptures. The semi-circular Repubblica square is located at the summit of the Viminal Hill, next to the Termini station. The former name of the piazza, Piazza dell`Esedra, still very common today, originates in the large exedra of the baths of Diocletian, which gives the piazza its shape.
