Roman buildings and temples are a thing of great beauty
It’s my dream to travel to Europe to see Greek and Roman ruins/preserved buildings. I find it absolutely fascinating, especially coming from a relatively young country with our oldest buildings less than 200 years old.
You know Lebanon have the largest roman temple on earth along with so much roman ruins everywhere in the country
Alex, every single one of your videos is always a delight. Thank you!
I enjoyed this video. Thank you!
I love Roman heritage so much. Thanks for all the great content! Every time I get a notification of your videos I watch them instantly!!!
Preserved...and splendid, great video, greetings from France!👍
beautifully! made!
Garni temple looks beautiful covered in snow when winter comes.
Not so much 😂 like here in Lebanon we have the largest roman temple on earth however I wouldn't advise visiting it in winter it will be covered by snow and so much stuff wouldn't be visible
Garni temple in Armenia is absolutley amazing
What an amazing video. My favorite ones are certainly the Pantheon and Maison Carrée
For being originary from the neighbourhoods of Vienne, that temple is absolutely charming on its small square, delicious!
these are all incredibly important.
How great was the construction, that the Parthenon survived the Medieval Ages, the Sack of Rome, the Second World War, and it's still satanding to this day.
Best misspelling ever, SATANding 🤘😎🤘
The Pantheon also survived the destruction (for building material) by the catholic church.
@Caratacus And that's why the Pantheon was spared -got it. If only the catholic church could have spared the other ancient Roman monuments. If only.
@Caratacus Are you denying the fact that the catholic church played a significant roll in the destruction of ancient Roman monuments? Hmm...from where did all that marble originate to make the vatican?
@Caratacus Yaaaaaawn!
Can't wait for the Marcus Aurelius video! When is it comming out?
Aming at early January, script is pretty much done, voiceover needs to get recorded and the video edited :)
@@TheSPQRHistorian Recorded, just needs editing :)
great video, thanks
Less known (but not least!) are the ones of Assisi (so called Temple of Minerva) and Temple of Hadrian in Rome (nowadays the Bourse) which present a massive colonnade. There was also a huge temple in Bordeaux, Les Piliers de Tutelle, unfortunately destroyed in 1677
Cheers from Vienne. :-)
Temple of Heracules is very cool
You should mention the Parthenon copy in Memphis, TN USA. Made of concrete but still nice!
Unless I'm mistaken, the Parthenon copy in Memphis, TN is not a full-scale model of the original.
@@johna.4334 Yes it is a 100% full-scale copy. Except made out of concrete :) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parthenon_(Nashville)
😍❤️❤️
The biggest roman temple is in Lebanon (largest roman temple in the world 🇱🇧)
0:46 Sainte Marie la Vierge* no?
Avec la chute de l'Empire romain d'Occident et la forte christianisation en Gaule, le temple est devenu l'église paroissiale de Sainte-Marie-la-Vieille puis Notre-Dame-de-la-Vie jusqu'à la Révolution française. À partir de 1792, l'église devient le temple de la Raison puis le tribunal de commerce de Vienne, ensuite le musée ainsi que la bibliothèque de Vienne (jusqu'en 1852), et enfin, après 28 ans de travaux, l'édifice regagne son aspect primitif de temple romain. (Wiki)
Just think there was thousands of temples like this all over the empire, plus hundreds of Greek temples before that. Now there’s only a couple of dozen left. Obviously they got vandalised at the end of paganism, but also their exotic building materials meant they were ripe for plunder.
I know this voice i just can’t put my finger on from where
He used to narrate for Historymarch
The Pantheon was likely a building for all gods to be worshipped in when needed. As we see Ancient Romans did not really have a lot of temples for the gods, so the Pantheon was a place for them to worship all the gods in. Sadly, it was converted into a Christian area, and they removed much of the connection to the gods within it.
ok
PAGANS
Just came here because the thumbnail annoyed me. A before shot without any paint is ridiculous
Why did those Romans copy from US buildings??? Lol why they couldn’t be original and create their own architecture! Smh those Romans and they call themselves the greatest empire ever.
;~/
The Roman Empire existed time before the Usa. This must be sarcasm😵
@@pawanj1019 Weak sarcasm at that.
Did somebody tell you that speaking in this bizarre fashion would endear you to your public? It doesn't- just speak in a normal voice and you will get more supporters, IMHO
