Day 5
Date: 03 February 2011
I decided to do a walking tour today. It wasn't easy to navigate in Rome. Road signs were barely visible. When I first look for the road signs, I was thinking 'Where the hell are the road signs?!'. Apparently it's located at the walls of the buildings. Duh!
Anyway, I had lunch at this particular restaurant (forgot the name) at Via Nazionale. It was OK and the price was so-so. I think the restaurant at Termini Station called Ciao was so much better.
And I thought this was the Spanish Steps. Haha! Anyway, I'm heading to Trevi Fountain, The Pantheon and Spanish Steps.
I kept walking. Hoping to find the fountain soon. As my feet are getting tired from walking non-stop.
Finally found it! It was huge and again, looks like it's made of marble. I didn't throw in a coin or 2 or 3.
I found a nice souviner shop at this alley. It was cheap!
So this is The Pantheon. I initially thought it was some kind of museum but I was wrong. I also expected it to be bigger but it is not! But entrance was free. Apparently a friend told me that the hole at the ceiling isn't even covered by glass. Hrm...
I sat in the church for awhile. To look at the interiors. It was amazing and surprisingly I felt very calm.
I walked pass by this columns. I have no idea what it was before or anything. Just thought it looked cool.
Trying to be artsy here.
Next stop - Spanish Steps. Now where is the Spanish Steps?
Well, this is the Spanish Steps.
Ooh! Prada!
Anyway, that sums up my trip to Rome & Pisa for this time around.
