Sender: Pebbles84.
The Pantheon, Rome
I've been to Italy many years ago but never made it to Rome. Pebbles84 offered to send touristy postcards from there and luckily, I made it to her RR group (Choose A Country RR). And this is the postcard she sent, of The Pantheon, Rome! The Pantheon is the best preserved Roman monument with the biggest brick dome in the history of architecture. According to Roman legend, it is the place where the founder of Rome, Romulus, at his death was seized by an eagle and taken off into the skies with the Gods. But in actuality, it contains the tombs of important Italians like Rafael and of several Italian Kings.
Truly a magnificent building!
