| Piazza di Pietra by Simona |
Between the Pantheon and Via del Corso, you come across a narrow square, Piazza di Pietra, which refers to the imposing columns of a temple to Emperor Hadrian built in 144 AD by his successor Antoninus Pius.
During the various centuries the building has been incorporated into a large building to later house the central Customs Office (Dogana di Terra) for goods which reached Rome by land.
Today the building belongs to the Roman Chamber of Commerce.
I love this place. I go past each time I visit the Pantheon, my favourite place in Rome.
