   The Pantheon was commissioned by Marcus Agrippa, the son-in-law of Emperor Augustus, in the first century BC. Hadrian rebuilt and re-dedicated it about 200 years later. The huge inscription on the very front of the Pantheon says, “Marcus Agrippa, son of Lucius, consul for the third time, made this”.

   Piazza Venezia is one of the hubs of the city, and several important roads meet in this busy spot. The imposing structure at the end of the square is the monument to Vittorio Emanuele II, first king of Italy.
