Temple of Antoninus and Faustina

#romanforum "This temple stands out in the Forum because of how well it has survived the centuries. Its massive Corinthian columns are awe-inspiring, and what makes it even more fascinating is how it was turned into a church in the Middle Ages. You can see the contrast between the original pagan temple and the Christian modifications, which tells a story of Rome’s evolving history. The green bronze door is especially impressive, and the temple’s location offers a fantastic view of the Forum. It’s not the most famous monument, but it’s definitely one of the most photogenic and historically intriguing ones."
