The stunning thousand -year -old Temple Dome was built for him!

The Temple in Rome, Italian capital, is the only building in the world in the world. As the top three famous scenic spots in Rome, tourists here are weaving all year round, and people are amazed by its exquisite design and heavy culture. In recent years, research has found that it has a lot of origins with astronomy, and has strengthened the glory of Rome, built for him!

The eyes of the dome are stunning for thousands of years

The main building of the Temple of Wan Temple is rounded and cylindrical, a bit like a large Mongolian bag. It is connected to a magnificent Colin -pillar porch on the north side, which is the entrance of the temple. Entering the Temple of Wan Temple, the wide space of nearly 6,000 square meters in view of the view is a stunning huge dome looking up. The span of the dome reached 43.3 meters, making the entire hall look particularly magnificent. What is even more eye -catching is that the top of the dome has a large circular hole with a diameter of 8.9 meters, called the "Eye of the Dome". The sun shot from the "Eye of the Dome" from the Temple of Wan Temple, and constantly changes slowly with the movement of the sun, making the entire space mysterious and solemn since ancient times. untie. Some people analyze from the mechanical structure, saying that it reduces the weight of the dome, thereby reducing the risk of collapse. Some people think that its main function is to light up because it is the only natural lighting hole in the entire hall. Others believe that it is to cool down the entire building in Rome in summer. Now it is found that the Temple of Wanshi is likely to be designed in accordance with the anniversary of the sun. The entire temple can be regarded as a huge sun! "Eye of the Dome" is the incident channel of the sun. Different from common ancient buildings, the entrance of the Temple of Wan Temple is located north instead of south. The sunlight at noon will be shot near the entrance to the north through the "Eye of the Dome". Such a design is to hold some important rituals on some specific days. We know that at noon in the year, the height of the sun has changed with different dates. In winter, the sun is low, and the angle of the sun (angle with the horizontal line) is small and can only be shown on the dome. The sun is high at noon in summer, and the incident angle of the sun is also large, which can be shown on the floor of the temple. According to the position of the sunlight point at noon, people can know what date it was, which is the same as the ancient Chinese watch.

Astronomical connotation leading coquettish

On the Spring equinox day and the autumn equinox in September, the sunlight at noon happened to be above the arch. These two moments were of great significance to the Romans. It was the time when the emperor was considered closest to heaven and gods. In particular, the Roman Castle Memorial Day -April 21, the sunlight at noon will happen at the entrance of the arch. At this time, the emperor stepped into the temple, and the dazzling sunshine gathered on him with impartiality. At this moment, some rituals can not only strengthen his sacredness and authoritarian power, but also strengthen the glory of Rome. The size of the dome, the size of the dome, the size of the dome, the height and width of the entrance arch are in line with this design concept. In Rome, spring/autumnal equinox day, and the sunlight at noon on April 21 were 48 degrees and 60 degrees, respectively. From the top to the bottom: the winter solstice, spring and autumn/point, and noon on the summer solstice on April 21, the sun shown by the sun's eyes is about 13 meters. At the door, the reasonable diameter of the dome must be around 44 meters. The pores of the dome eye are determined according to the width of the entrance. The distant sunlight is basically parallel to the earth, so the size of the open hole is equivalent to the width of the entrance porch. This can ensure that the sunlight at noon is just illuminating a light spots similar to the door hole. The interior view of the Temple of Wan Temple. Its internal size can accommodate the next round. There is a harmonious and perfect meaning of the Temple of Wan Temple for perfection in the geometric shape. Its section can be tolerated in the next round. There is a harmonious and perfect meaning. The wall is divided into two layers, and the proportion is close to the golden segmentation. The architectural structure designed according to the rules of the sun is even more injecting a profound scientific connotation. It is not only a precious cultural treasure, but also an outstanding scientific hall.
