Paris - Looking up The Pantheon

Paris Pantheon - Paris, France.

 

Not everything under construction is not worth taking a photograph of. The Paris Pantheon, although at its present state is hard to appreciate, still has an innate beauty that comes through no matter what.

 

The Pantheon was originally built as a church dedicated to St. Genevieve but now functions as a secular mausoleum containing the remains of distinguished French citizens. An early example of Neoclassicism, its facade was modeled from the Pantheon in Rome.
