Yes, the Pantheon is definitely worth visiting, as it's one of the best preserved structures remaining from Ancient Rome. Completed in the second century, the Pantheon has the world's largest unreinforced concrete dome, which has inspired iconic buildings from the Paris Panthéon to the Florence Duomo. While you can enter the present-day church on your own, you'll learn more by visiting on guided tours, which cover the Pantheon's architectural highlights and 2,000-year history. Many tours include stops at other attractions in central Rome, offering a perfect way to get an overview of the Eternal City.

Per one customer who booked the Pantheon Elite Guided Tour - Rome's Iconic Ancient Temple, "Amanda was an awesome guide. We loved the small tour and ability to engage and ask questions — she really gave us great insights on the Pantheon. I'm so glad we didn't try to do this on our own - we would've missed so much!!!"

The interior of the Pantheon is one single space, so once you’re inside, it only takes a few minutes to walk through it. Plan to spend about 20-30 minutes marveling at its soaring dome and oculus, admiring the ornate marble decorations, and walking the circumference to take in the lavish tombs.

Rome made history by announcing that all visitors must purchase admission tickets to visit the Pantheon as of July 2023. You can buy tickets online in advance via the Pantheon’s official website at the ticket counter at the site’s entrance immediately before entering.

The Pantheon is open daily but is most crowded on the weekends and holidays when Mass is held inside this ancient temple-turned-church. The best day to visit is on a weekday morning before the crowds flow in or on weekday evenings just before the 6:45pm last entry (the site closes at 7pm).

It was once very quick and easy to enter the Pantheon, one of Rome’s last unticketed attractions. Today, however, the line at the ticket counter can stretch across the square, though it does tend to move quickly. Consider that you may wait in line for up to 30 minutes before reaching the entrance.

There are tons of fun things to do when you're done visiting the Pantheon. According to travelers, these are some of the top attractions in Rome:

• Colosseum

• Roman Forum

• Vatican Museums

• Sistine Chapel

• St. Peter's Basilica
