Roma - Pantheon
The porticus of the circular Pantheon. The Pantheon (aka "La Rotonda") was a temple, completed around 114 aC, dedicated to all (pan) Gods (theon).
It is one of the best preserved antique structure and still the Pantheon's dome is the world's largest unreinforced concrete dome. The height to the "oculus" and the diameter of the interior circle are the same, 43.3 metres.
From 609 on the Pantheon was used as a church ("Sancta Maria ad Martyres"), today this is a major tourist attraction with more than 6 million visitors every year.
Since the Renaissance the Pantheon has been used as a tomb. Among those buried here is Raphael.
All tourists just have to take this shot, standing under the dome.
