the Panthéon - 9/16 visit

I decided to go back to the Panthéon for a second time but this time actually go inside and upstairs. I made it in time for a quick stroll then got in line for the escorted walk up the stairs. The building was cool inside, but perhaps after Versailles I wasn’t overly impressed. It is a fantastic building and I still find it amazing that men made this. It was completed in 1790 as a church but it serves as a mausoleum. By this point, I’d been to quite a few landmarks. It meant that I could recognize and name the Sacre Couer, the Notre Dame, Invalidies, and Eiffel Tower.

I found a qualified picture taker and asked her to take a picture of me so you can see what I saw when I reached the top. The picture of me on the ledge has a church in the background. It is one of 128 churches in the area. 128. I don’t know what it is called and I didn’t bother to find out either lol.

The view was great but I climbed even higher the next day when I went to Notre Dame. I have quite a bit to say about that trek.
