Today I visited the Castel Sant'Angelo built around 130 AD which was used as a tomb for Roman emperors. It was also used as a military outpost and home for the Pope. It was refere
d to in the book and movie
Angels and Demons. I then visited the Museum Capitolini which houses mostly sculptures such as the horse and rider on the right. I also went to the Pantheon and heard an orchestra rehearsing for a Mozart Concert to be held later in the evening. It is amazing how Rome has the old integrated with the new, the very beautiful and the very tacky.
