Best viewpoint: Square on to the Tempietto from the far side of the courtyard, as far back as the walls allow. It is a building designed to be walked around and seen whole, and the courtyard is only just big enough to let you do it — which is itself the point, because Bramante meant the space around it to be much larger.
