Vice-President M. Venkaiah Naidu inaugurated the ‘World Peace Monument’ dome – World’s largest dome – on the 150th birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi.
About:
The ‘World Peace Monument’ is located at the Maharashtra Institute of Technology (MIT)’s World Peace University (MIT-WPU) campus at Loni Kalbhor near Pune.
At 160 ft. in diameter and 263 ft tall, it is larger in area than the dome at St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City (which is 136 ft. in diameter and 448 ft. in height).
The dome is built atop the MIT World Peace Library and the World Peace Prayer Hall, which are named after the 13th century poet-saint and philosopher ‘Dnyaneshwar’ — a pivotal figure of the Bhakti movement in Maharashtra.
