HISTORY OF ROMAN ARCHITECTURE

PANTHEON No.3

• The interior is a perfect circle whose diameter and height are exactly the same, 43m.
  
  
• The interior design of the hemispherical dome was quoted by Michelangelo in the new Sacristy of San Lorenzo (Firenze, Italy).
  
  
• The second level consists of a row of blind windows alternating with square designs, which is the re-design in 1747.
  The original design of the second level is seen in Pantheon[No.1]
