    It’s my dream to travel to Europe to see Greek and Roman ruins/preserved buildings. I find it absolutely fascinating, especially coming from a relatively young country with our oldest buildings less than 200 years old.

    How great was the construction, that the Parthenon survived the Medieval Ages, the Sack of Rome, the Second World War, and it's still satanding to this day.

      The Pantheon also survived the destruction (for building material) by the catholic church.

      And that's why the Pantheon was spared -got it. If only the catholic church could have spared the other ancient Roman monuments. If only.

      Are you denying the fact that the catholic church played a significant roll in the destruction of ancient Roman monuments? Hmm...from where did all that marble originate to make the vatican?

    Less known (but not least!) are the ones of Assisi (so called Temple of Minerva) and Temple of Hadrian in Rome (nowadays the Bourse) which present a massive colonnade. There was also a huge temple in Bordeaux, Les Piliers de Tutelle, unfortunately destroyed in 1677

    You should mention the Parthenon copy in Memphis, TN USA. Made of concrete but still nice!

      Unless I'm mistaken, the Parthenon copy in Memphis, TN is not a full-scale model of the original.

      Avec la chute de l'Empire romain d'Occident et la forte christianisation en Gaule, le temple est devenu l'église paroissiale de Sainte-Marie-la-Vieille puis Notre-Dame-de-la-Vie jusqu'à la Révolution française. À partir de 1792, l'église devient le temple de la Raison puis le tribunal de commerce de Vienne, ensuite le musée ainsi que la bibliothèque de Vienne (jusqu'en 1852), et enfin, après 28 ans de travaux, l'édifice regagne son aspect primitif de temple romain.

    Just think there was thousands of temples like this all over the empire, plus hundreds of Greek temples before that. Now there’s only a couple of dozen left. Obviously they got vandalised at the end of paganism, but also their exotic building materials meant they were ripe for plunder.

    The Pantheon was likely a building for all gods to be worshipped in when needed. As we see Ancient Romans did not really have a lot of temples for the gods, so the Pantheon was a place for them to worship all the gods in. Sadly, it was converted into a Christian area, and they removed much of the connection to the gods within it.

    Did somebody tell you that speaking in this bizarre fashion would endear you to your public?
    It doesn't- just speak in a normal voice and you will get more supporters, IMHO
