The Pantheon is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Rome today, and for good reason. It’s a deeply impressive structure, which took huge resources of manpower, money and materials from the four corners of the Roman empire.
As you join me in this guided walk around, and for those of you who are keen to investigate my model in the next Step, make sure you ‘look up’ and see the light shining down through the oculus (you can play with how the light filters into the interior of the dome in the next Step). We’ll ask you a question about this in the follow-up discussion.
