The Pantheon in Rome does not have a strict dress code. However, it is advisable to dress modestly and respectfully when visiting religious and historical sites in Italy. While there may not be specific regulations, visitors are generally encouraged to avoid wearing clothing that is too revealing, such as shorts, sleeveless tops and hats. Keep in mind that these recommendations are based on cultural norms and a sense of respect for the historical and religious significance of the site.

The construction of the Pantheon in Rome began in 118 AD during the reign of Emperor Hadrian. The Pantheon replaced an earlier temple commissioned by Marcus Agrippa in 27 BC, which was subsequently damaged by a fire. The new structure, dedicated to all the gods, was completed and inaugurated by Hadrian around 125 AD. Therefore, as of the current year, the Pantheon is over 1,900 years old, making it one of the best-preserved ancient Roman buildings and a remarkable testament to ancient engineering and architectural prowess.

The Pantheon in Rome serves as a burial place for several notable individuals. Among them are:

> Raphael: The renowned Italian painter and architect, Raphael, known for his contributions to the High Renaissance, is buried in the Pantheon.

> King Vittorio Emanuele II: The first king of a unified Italy, King Vittorio Emanuele II, is also interred in the Pantheon.

> King Umberto I: Another Italian monarch, King Umberto I, is buried in the Pantheon.

> Queen Margherita: The queen consort of Italy and wife of King Umberto I, Queen Margherita, is also laid to rest in the Pantheon.

The Pantheon’s oculus, an open hole at the center of its dome, allows rain to enter the building. However, the floor of the Pantheon is gently sloped and equipped with drainage channels to manage rainwater. The design of the Pantheon incorporates this intentional drainage system to prevent flooding. Visitors may observe rain falling through the oculus, creating a captivating and atmospheric effect within the interior of the monument. This ingenious architectural feature showcases the advanced engineering skills of the ancient Romans while adding a unique dimension to the Pantheon’s overall experience.

There is generally no public access to the roof of the Pantheon in Rome. Visitors can explore the interior of the Pantheon, including its iconic dome and the oculus that allows natural light to enter, but rooftop access is restricted.

The oculus in the Pantheon serves both practical and symbolic purposes.

> Practical Purpose: The oculus, a large, open hole in the center of the dome, functions as a source of natural light. It allows sunlight to enter the Pantheon’s interior, illuminating the space in a unique way. The oculus is positioned at the apex of the dome, and its size and position are carefully calculated to optimize the diffusion of light throughout the day.

> Symbolic Purpose: It is often interpreted as a representation of the sun or the eye of the heavens, connecting the earthly realm of the Pantheon’s interior with the celestial world above. This symbolism aligns with the temple’s original dedication to all the gods and reflects the ancient Roman understanding of the divine. The oculus also contributes to the sense of grandeur and openness within the Pantheon’s design.

The Pantheon’s dome remains standing through a combination of innovative architectural design and materials. Constructed with a mix of concrete, pozzolan, and lime, the dome gradually reduces in thickness from the base to the oculus. Hidden structural elements, including relieving arches, distribute the weight, enabling this ancient marvel to endure for over 1,900 years.
