il resto di Roma

While in Rome, of course I visited the Parthenon. Who wouldn't?! I love it, it is so beautiful and historic!


Another thing I love seeing is the Augusteum. It is glorious even though some people would just say it is a pile of rocks. It is one of the quietest and lonely places in all of Rome. Rome just builds up around it, one inch a year in debris. It is beautiful and reminds myself that even through all the dirt, literally, something can still be beautiful and revered. A life lesson? Why, yes, I believe it is.

  1. Maddie, Loved your blog. I'm sharing your picture of Augusteum on my blog (myordinarylifejournal.blogspot.com/), with credits to you! Let me know if you have a problem with that.
