Altar of the Fatherland (Altare della Patria) – It’s more than just a white enormous monument

It's not hard to miss this monument, it was actually the first architecture I saw when I step foot in Rome. Of course, whether it’s on my itinerary or not I would still see it because K parked his car just beside it. When you want to explore Rome, it is best done by foot. So, we parked the car, put coins on the meter and started going through the Rome Guide book K gave me. First stop was, you should have guessed by now; the Altar of the Fatherland.
