While in the process of uploading pictures and writing an entry for this blog, I realized that there were some world landmarks that had copies in other parts of the world. The TREVI Fountain in Rome for one had its share of imitators both in Asia and the US.

We saw this TREVI Fountain in Lotte World, a mall and amusement park combined, in Seoul, South Korea last July 2005.
