The Pantheon

The Pantheon in Rome is a remarkably preserved ancient temple built around 126 AD, originally dedicated to all Roman gods. Its most striking feature is its massive dome, which remains the world’s largest unreinforced concrete dome. The oculus at the center of the ceiling allows natural light to illuminate the interior. The building’s design showcases advanced engineering skills of the Romans, combining impressive architecture with practicality. Today, it functions as a church and a popular tourist attraction, symbolizing both Roman ingenuity and enduring architectural achievement.
