The Pantheon







The Pantheon was one of the places I looked forward to seeing the most. It really is a marvelous structure. The coffered ceiling was really cool and impressive. The individual coffers are a lot larger than I imagined them. The oculus in the center is also really cool. It would have been neat to be there on a really rainy day to watch the water come pouring in through it. A lot of my pictures of the interior unfortunately didn't turn out because the lighting was bad inside so I don't have that many pics to show. It was everything I imagined though, and I can now see why this is one of the structures that is most studied in architecture.
