Vatican, motionless water in fountain in Saint Peters Square, to save water by order of the Vatican. Normally water is shooting from its top and springing over gently in a water like dome over the weather was incredibly hot and tourists were constantly running to the free water from some fountains in order to quench their thirst. I was one of them. Most fountains stopped, but a few small for drinking were allowed, and we all appreciated it very much since it was hitting 90-92F for the last few days.
