Visible light from the photosphere (the Sun's surface) normally "swamps" the light from the outer parts. But the Sun's disc is covered during an eclipse, allowing us to see the Sun's "atmosphere".
The bright red halo around the visible surface of the sun is the corona, the sun's upper atmosphere. by Ashley age 9 IT CAN ALSO BE CALLED THE CHROMOSPHERE:) SABRINA AGE 14
Chromosphere and corona
I guess you mean only during a total eclipse of the Sun. At that time we can see the chromosphere and the corona. The outermost layer is the corona.
During a solar eclipse, the two parts of the Sun's outer layer that become visible are the corona and the chromosphere. The corona is the Sun's outer atmosphere, characterized by its pearly white glow, while the chromosphere is a thin layer above the photosphere that appears as a reddish halo. Both become visible when the Moon obscures the brighter photosphere during the eclipse.
During a solar eclipse, the two parts of the Sun's outer layer that are only visible from Earth are the corona and the chromosphere. The corona is the Sun's outer atmosphere, appearing as a halo of plasma, while the chromosphere is a thin layer above the photosphere that can show a reddish hue. Both are obscured by the Sun's bright light except during the brief moments of a total solar eclipse.
during a total eclipse
The corona and chromosphere are not easily visible during regular daylight because they are much fainter than the Sun's bright surface (photosphere). The chromosphere, a thin layer above the photosphere, emits light primarily in specific wavelengths, while the corona, the outer atmosphere of the Sun, is only visible during a total solar eclipse when the bright photosphere is obscured. During an eclipse, the corona's ethereal glow becomes apparent, revealing its structure and dynamics. Without such conditions, both layers remain hidden in the overwhelming brightness of the Sun.

The corona is the sun's outermost layer, which is only visible during a total solar eclipse when the moon covers the sun's surface. The corona is much dimmer than the sun's surface, making it visible only when the sun's bright photosphere is blocked.

You can see the corona and chromosphere.
During a solar eclipse, the layers of the sun that can be seen are the photosphere, chromosphere, and corona. The photosphere is the visible surface of the sun, the chromosphere is a reddish layer above the photosphere, and the corona is the outermost layer that appears as a faint halo around the sun.
