Pantheon (building in Rome)

The Pantheon in Rome is an ancient Roman temple built around 125 AD, renowned for its impressive architecture and engineering. It features a massive circular design topped by a spacious dome with a central oculus—an open skylight—that allows natural light to illuminate the interior. Originally dedicated to all Roman gods, it later became a Christian church. The Pantheon’s perfect proportions and durable construction, including its unreinforced concrete dome, showcase Roman innovation and craftsmanship. Today, it is a well-preserved monument admired for its historical significance and architectural brilliance.
