Bernini, as any genius artist, wanted to add some hidden and esoteric meanings to his fountains. Valeting water is the essential element of sculpture. Water that does not gush but flows from various points of the rocks and pours into the large base tank.

The Trevi Fountain is visited by more than 3.5 million people every year. It is a magnificent tribute to the roman god Ocean. The main scene is represented by a rocky cliff with a shell where the God of the Sea rises in his glory pulled by two horses. Their expressions symbolize the states of the sea: one is calm, the other not.

One of the two newts, also, blows deeply into a shell: this sound was able to calm storms and heralded the arrival of the god of the sea.
Surely you know that in the Trevi Fountain you must throw a coin to return to Eternal City, and especially the in loved ones.  One of the legends tells that Roman girls brought their companions before leaving for military service, giving them drinks from the fountain, and then breaking glasses.
