The Pantheon: Begin your tour at the majestic Pantheon, an architectural wonder originally built as a temple dedicated to all Roman gods. Your expert guide will unravel the stories behind this 2,000-year-old structure, from its original construction under Emperor Hadrian to its conversion into a Christian church.
Marvel at the massive dome, still the largest unsupported concrete dome in the world, and learn about the engineering techniques that made it possible. Your guide will explain the significance of the oculus, the central opening at the top of the dome, which serves both as a source of natural light and a symbolic connection to the heavens.
