The PANTHEON is yet another marvel of Ancient Roman engineering.  This building, constructed between 118 and 128 AD, was originally built as a temple. 

The structure measures 142 feet in diameter and has a height of 142 feet and was designed to fit a perfect sphere, the roof of which follows the Pantheon's ceiling to a circular opening.

The Pantheon became a Christian church in 609 AD and today houses the tomb of the famous Renaissance artist Raphael.
