crazy that we don’t built stuff half as beautiful as they did 2k years ago

[FRADAVE]

Also, the Pantheon was made from Roman concrete, which is self-repairing and lasts millennia!

[Grindleytroy]

Had the privilege to visit this place once. The brick work is amazing if you just appreciate that this was done nearly 2000 years ago.

[rangerk]

Me thinking if i could climb it the way Ezio did

[VictorPonce-oq]

That's not how it was built. That's what it is made of. So how was it really built?

[feliciagaffney]

That's how it was designed. Not exactly how it was built. I thought you'd tell us how they made the concrete. Or where the columns made from marble? How did they get the marble columns from the quarry to the building site? How did they make such smooth rounded columns?

[drnchrjacademy]

And then comes modern buildings... Breaks down for no reason 😂

[dragonmartijn]

Yes, but how did they pour the concrete?

ASTOUNDING HOW IT WAS BUILT, AND IS STILL THERE AFTER

[Pichouette]

I was stationed at the American Embassy in Rome for a year. We used to enjoy hanging out by the Pantheon in the evenings.

[farojj]

One of the greatest designers of it is Apollodorus of Damascus 🙃

[shailajaangadi]

It was a wonderful experience to visit Rome and the pantheon is a unique structure with great architectural beauty each ancient structure there is almost 2000 years old, they appear to be built recently. , this is one such rare structure.

[brettmuir]

Nice description but nowhere does it explain how it was made

[surfmarine]

Better quality fomula for longevity modern concrete

[astitvavishwakarma]

A video on ancient hindu temples too,

[swatilohar]

Guys come to India we got millions of temples with each having diffrent speciality

[hevad]

"How it was made", proceeds to describe its structure, but zero construction method descriptions

[kamalakrsna]

How to move the 11meter long by 1.5 meter diameter columns into place? How far away is the quarry the stones came from.

[Kddatashan]

Have you seen Kailash temple in Ajanta caves, Maharashtra, India ❤ this is 5% in front of it

[ryanispro]

This is ugly in front of South Asian and East Asian Architecture, Indian carvings from pure stone top to bottom with no mistakes and hollow parts, and moving parts with east asian houses with such beauty and elegance covered in colour and much older
