The Pantheon, Piazza Navona and St Ignatius

In the afternoon I went to the Pantheon which is a giant building that has a dome roof 32m in diameters - absolutely massive and considering it was built around 5th century, pretty amazing (being renovated so some of the roof is spotless while other sections are massively dirty). From here it was a quick walk over to Bernini's Fountain of the Four Rivers and Borromini's building opposite again (again another victim of renovation which was a little disappointing).

Afterwards I was heading back to the hostel and passed through a piazza called Ignazio which I wondered if it was 'Ignatius'. One thing I wanted to see was a church with a ceiling fresco of St Ignatius. There was a church here so I wondered in and it was the exact church I wanted to see - more blind stupid luck.

Basically the ceiling fresco is massive and if you stand in one spot, the perspect works in such a way that it looks like the ceiling space extends up into the heavens. The spot you stand on was pretty in discreet and everybody else was looking up and didn't know about the spot (one of those things were study over the last couple of years gives that little bit of extra insight to really appreciate things).

Also managed to wander into a piazza and they just started a changing of the guard with a 40 piece band and was quite extravagent - can't believe my luck when it comes to this type of things.
