3. Pantheon 

This present-day church and former pagan temple was  built in 120 A.D. It is world-famous for its amazingly  perfect proportions. Visit the resting places of all those  buried here including King Umberto I, King Victor Emmanuel II and the legendary Raphael (the famous artist,  not the teenage mutant ninja turtle). Admission is free.

4. Colosseum 

Also known as Colosseo, this wonder of engineering was  completed and opened in 80. A.D. Located on  marshland, its circumference is 573 yards and could once  host nearly 50,000 people. Once a human-and  animal-rights atrocity, it was the site of gladiatorial fights  at least as gory as the “Saw” movie franchise.
