I think it's amazing that the coffers are a from of decoration but also a form of weight control in the ceiling. The oculus allows natural light to illuminate the surface of the dome, giving the feeling of truly being in the presence of the gods. Seeing photos of the Pantheon are exciting, but I think if one were to visit Rome and be able to walk into the Pantheon (And other Roman architectures), you would encounter a breathtaking experience you would always remember.

The photos are great… but you sure do have to go there to experience that sense of disorientation that finally resolves itself into Rome.

It's hard for professors to put themselves back in that place when they first landed in Italy or in this massive metropolis, before we figured it all out, which is what I try to do to help students grasp the many layers of Rome. The photos are great... but you sure do have to go there to experience that sense of disorientation that finally resolves itself into love.

I was lucky enough to study there for 4 months with the U. of Washington. It was the best 4 months of my life. Rome infiltrates the soul like no other city I've been to. There’s no place like Rome!

We spent a week there and walked everywhere; no need to get a cab. Every street and every building is a museum unto itself. Rome is a museum! Rome is my favorite place on the planet.
