The Pantheon is the Roman monument holding the greatest number of records: the best preserved, with the biggest brick dome in the history of architecture and is considered the forerunner of all modern places of worship.

Dont bother! So many free travel Podcasts, they must be trying to traffic customers to the stores on their websites, or the narrator is giving a personal account of their tedious, step by step walk through the city... no wonder they are free. When will someone make a Paris or Rome podcast which is practical for actual tourists. So, far Rick Steeves is the best Podcast I can find for Paris. As for the rest, the enthusiasm of the narrators are no different then the audio guides you can rent at a museum.
