Temple of Jupiter
It is noteworthy that the temple has no entrance by itself, it was entered by bridges across arches from either of the other two temples.As it stands now, the most interesting detail to take in for those climbing the Capitol, are the underground chambers which cannot be entered, but viewed from above.Jupiter's temple has no niche for the god statue. Still there must have been one, probably placed in the middle of the floor.Note the recesses for the roof beams. Arches connecting the Temple of Jupiter with the Temple of Minerva. While the bridge is gone here, it is still intact on the other side, towards the Temple of Juno.
