Drinking Fountain

Walking around Florence, one may or may not notice the several drinking fountains. This is one that, while in a particularly crowded area, I have always felt drawn to because it feels like a hidden gem that you might miss even if it's hidden in plain sight. The tourists, for the most part, do not recognize that this is not just a fountain, but a drinkable one, which makes it more of a local custom to drink or refill water bottles with it. A travel book is most likely not going to ever include this, or any other, drinking fountains, making them a contrast to mass tourism. - Victoria Cojab
