Standing in Awe at the Pantheon

#mytraveldiary The Pantheon, also known as Basilica di Santa Maria ad Martyres, in Rome, Lazio is one of those places that never fails to amaze. From the outside, its massive columns and ancient façade dominate Piazza della Rotonda, creating an unforgettable first impression. Stepping inside, the huge dome with its central oculus is absolutely breathtaking, filling the space with natural light that changes throughout the day.

The mix of Roman engineering and Christian history gives the Pantheon a unique atmosphere, both sacred and timeless. It is also the resting place of important figures like Raphael, which adds another layer of meaning. The lively square outside with cafés and street performers makes the visit even more enjoyable. The Pantheon is truly the heart of Rome’s history.
