This photo was taken in the Piazza Della Rotunda near the start of Via De Pastini.

The huge, 60 ton weighing columns used for the portico were quarried in Egypt. They were transported all the way to Rome using barges and vessels. The columns support a pediment with an inscription attributing the Pantheon to Marcus Agrippa even though it was built by Hadrian.
