The Pantheon

There was water on the floor inside as it had just rained... so interesting. For some reason, The Pantheon was much older looking and much bigger than I thought it was going to be - the place was huge!













"The Pantheon (Latin Pantheon, rarely Pantheum, from Greek Pantheion, meaning 'Shrine of all the Gods', is a building in Rome which was originally built as a temple to the seven deities of the seven planets in the state religion of Ancient Rome, but which has been a Christian church since the 7th century. It is the best-preserved of all Roman buildings and the oldest important building in the world with its original roof intact. It has been in continuous use throughout its history.


The original Pantheon was built in 27 BC-25 BC under the Roman Empire, during the third consulship of Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa."
