Micro Rome #3 - The Pantheon

7 comments

The Pantheon is a building in Rome, Italy, commissioned by Marcus Agrippa during the reign of August (27 BC - 14 AD). The building is circular with a portico of large granite columns. A rectangular vestibule links the porch to the rotunda, which is under a coffered concrete dome, with a central opening (oculus) to the sky. Almost two thousand years after it was built, the Pantheon's dome is still 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 (142 ft). It is one of the best-preserved of all Ancient Roman buildings.

This is the third Micro building of the series and the smallest among them. More buildings coming soon.
