    Comments: Well made engineering and design. Even from afar can people see and recognize the cathedral because of its shape and size. It's hard to imagine that men could build such things with the tools and simple machines that they had.

Because even with contemporary techonolgy, man must have serious difficulty to build this dome. Not using reinforced concrete, according to past method, there will be many serious troble to build this cathenal. And man will be able to desing like this proportion, shape, dimension. I

    Comments: This piece of work is truely amazing. The construction of this dome is still questioned even to this day. You guys should really look at the inside of this thing to get the full aspect of it. Even now, this buildings would be a difficult task.
