Pantheon - Marissa

This is Marissa:

The Pantheon we went to today was quite remarkable. Personally I was very impressed by the architecture and all of the paintings and sculptures. The crypt below it was quite fascinating as well with some important French figures buried there (e.g. Pierre and Marie Curie). The structure itself I felt represented some great aspects of French history as well as the building had a nice view of the Eiffel Tower.

  1. Being able to see the entire pantheon from the tower was also quite amazing.

  2. The Crypt wasn't as close and clammy feeling as I thought it'd be.

  3. I thought it was interesting that they would move the bodies from previous grave sights to the Pantheon
