Porch of the Temple of Vesta

As you stand in the shade of the porch, you can look out over the Forum and see the bustling activity on the Sacra Via. As you turn back to the temple, you see the large double door leading into the cella. The door is made of wood, but covered with iron and looks very heavy. Fortunately, it is standing open, so you can move forward through it.
