Rome - The Pantheon

I reckon this was more impressive than the Coliseum. Possibly this is because it's the best preserved of all the Roman buildings and maybe of all buildings of its age worldwide. All the same, it's epic. From outside, the giant columns that support it's roof just exude 'ancient Rome'. To try and show you the full awesomeness of the inside, I made an attempt at a mini panoramic image, collaged on Photoshop. The ceiling is a giant dome with a big hole in it basically. And it looks wicked. Now this was ORIGINALLY built in 27BC as a temple for the gods and then was rebuilt in about 125AD after it was destroyed in a fire. This was built 2000 years ago! Builders today couldn't do this, fucking cowboys. The intricacy of it's design is mesmerising, involving wooden moulds, scaffolding and 6metre thick walls. It's massive.
