Visitors can observe the arches, carved decorations and drainage systems up close to experience the exquisiteness and magnificence of ancient Roman architecture.

The Elephant Fountain is located on the square of the cathedral. It is also a landmark building here. It is quite symbolic. The place is not big. You can see this fountain when visiting the cathedral and the monuments around the square.
