The structures of the Capitol dome in Washington are made of cast iron. And the dome of St. Isaac's Cathedral in St. Petersburg. I found the largest brick dome. Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore. 4 million bricks. Each brick weighs 4 kg. We get the weight of the dome with the solution, say 20,000 tons. To the maximum. The height of the dome with a cross is 114 m. Diameter is 42 m. The dome is octagonal in shape. Why is this for the Catholic faith?
The Capitol dome officially weighs 6,400 tons.
The dome of the Pantheon in Rome is made of concrete. The oldest Pantheon is made of concrete. Which they then forgot and made everything out of brick. What actually happened then?
Let's return to our facts. First, all Taoist-ancient temples in Russia and China are closed and transferred to other religions. I'm guessing all over the world. Then large temples are built according to the Taoist-antique scheme in London, Paris, Washington. Or they capture it and rename it. The houses around the Temple of Invalides in Paris - they shout - we are built according to the canons

. For now I will draw this conclusion. Because in all the buildings I have listed, the center of mass is in the rotunda under the dome. You may notice that this is not the case now at the same temple in Florence... But these round windows. Like the round temple in Russia. They do not comply with any canons of Catholicism. They are difficult to make, and all late-built temples work primarily with straight lines.
Vatican. Columbia region. City in London. Where the buildings are located are separate legal entities. For example, the monarch of Great Britain can only enter the City with the approval of the Lord Mayor of the City. These buildings are officially a different jurisdiction than the rest of the country.
And I’ll remind you. All of the above is my private subjective opinion.
