I tell them this for two reasons:

It’s true, by touching the enormous cool columns you really do get a sense of how long they have been holding up the entry to this amazing building.

It’s really fun to watch the faces of the other people milling around the monument as my thirty keen tourists rush up and enthusiastically hug, and in the case of Peter, hump, the pillars.

We have sufficient time here to allow the flock to explore the inside of the building and gaze at the twilight sky through the enormous hole in the roof of the dome; a dome that has been a window to the sky since the days when the earth was ‘flat’. Time to soak up the ambience of the piazza and time to buy another gelato.

It is short distance to the last stop on our stroll - the fantastic Piazza Navonna. The most beautiful baroque square in Rome. Home to the Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi (Fountain of the Four Rivers), Borromini’s church of Sant’Agnese in Agone and… yes… fuck it, why not… why don’t you get another gelato?
