Our first stop was the Spanish Steps which in my opinion was not all that impressive. Next we came to the Trevi Fountain which was not functioning due to the restoration being done to it. Finally, we got to the Pantheon. I was talking to Professor Hesting about where to find souvenirs as he simply pointed around the corner. The magnificent building was awe-inspiring and made me wonder, how can someone build something so incredible and massive with no modern technology? Then have it withstand multiple wars and earthquakes. This building was a center for culture as it was literally a temple built to the gods. Overtime for cultural reasons, it was adapted to be a Catholic place instead of mythology.<\/p>\n<p>We continued our journey through what seemed like a labyrinth of apartment buildings where you could see all different nationalities all trying to trade with the people of Rome and its tourists. Also, there are so many tourists in Rome that one might believe a new monument could be built just with only a piece of the combined income from the different nationalities visiting. Truly an economic center for tourism, the city of Rome brings in the serious money when it comes to tourism.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today, we took a tour through the winding city of Rome and saw some of its most famous pieces of art and culture.
