One of the most historical and best preserved ones in Rome is the Agrippa Pantheon, or just known as the Pantheon. This building is located next to a very nice square. Its outside is quiet robust and austere, with its columns and the concrete wall, but when you enter the magic starts. A huge dome of more than 40 metres of diameter and 44 metres high is stands in front of you in a unique way, actually, it is the biggest concrete dome in the world and in the times when it was built, the architect who planned it was already wondering how it could stand so perfectly. The most famous part of the building is the highest point of the dome which was the light point where there was no electricity. The best moment of the day to visit it is around midday, around 12h, when the sun enters through this point and you can see all its interior part.
