The story

Wikipedia ↗

Story · Basilica di San Carlo al Corso

You're standing on the little square of San Carlo al Corso, just off Corso Vittorio Emanuele II and a few steps from Piazza San Babila. Take a look at that round church with its columns and dome. Look familiar? It should. The Pantheon in Rome was the obvious model for this neoclassical design.
