https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pantheon,_Rome

The Pantheon (UK: /ˈpænθiən/, US: /-ɒn/;[1] Latin: Pantheum, from Greek Πάνθειον Pantheion, /"[temple] of all the gods/") is a former Roman temple and, since 609 AD, a Catholic church (Basilica di Santa Maria ad Martyres or Basilica of St. Mary and the Martyrs) in Rome, Italy, on the site of an earlier temple commissioned by Marcus Agrippa during the reign of Augustus (27 BC – AD 14). It was rebuilt by the Emperor Hadrian and probably consecrated around 126 AD. The date of construction is uncertain, as Hadrian chose not to have the new temple inscribed, instead preserving the inscription from Agrippa's older temple, which had been burned down.

The building is cylindrical in shape, with a portico of large granite Corinthian columns (eight in the first row and two groups of four behind) under a pediment. A rectangular vestibule connects the portico to the rotunda, which is under a coffered concrete dome, with a central opening (oculus) to the sky. Nearly two thousand years after it was built, the Pantheon's dome remains the largest unreinforced concrete dome in the world.[3] The height to the oculus and the diameter of the inner circle are the same, 43 metres (142 ft).

Vatican City (the smallest country in the world) is an independent country within the city limits of Rome, the only existing example of a country within a city. Rome is often called the city of the seven hills because of its geographical location, and also the /"Eternal City/". Rome is generally considered the /"cradle of Western civilization and Christian culture/
