The Colosseum in Rome
Pont du Gard
Pompeii
Top of the Duomo in Florence
Personally I think that of all the big cities in Europe, Rome has an easy 1st place when it comes to monuments that just blow you away. The Colosseum, the Pantheon, the Trevi fountain all are just incredible in terms of scale and, I guess, majesty? I’m not a writer so I have a hard time putting it into words, but when I stood there in front of those things, I was just dumbstruck. You could add another half dozen things from Rome that are another tier down from those three but still really amazing.
Now the city itself is dirty and busy and not half as nice as some others, but for monuments Rome is where it’s at.
