I walked by the Pantheon almost every day before class. It was typically a forty-minute sojourn, except for the one day I took a taxi – very convenient, but afterward I was ashamed of myself. This is one of my favorite sites in Rome... I really don't know what it is about it, but I was in awe every time I saw it or stepped inside. The oculus in the top of the building is open to the sky, so when it rains outside, it rains inside. There was only one day when the rain was significant enough, making it worth it to run all the way to the Pantheon, but unfortunately I was doing my laundry. Some day.
