The Colosseum Roma is the eternal symbol of Rome having
been constructed more than 2000 years ago. Still standing
the Colosseum is known the world over although the
myth that you can see this from space is completely
untrue. This particular virtual image or 360 degree
photo of the Colosseum Roma was taken very early in
the morning so the lighting is quite poor. We are
hoping to do another one but the spoilsports at the
Ministry for Arts and Culture refuse to let use inside
to take a picture... The Colosseum is the most visited
attraction in Italy and at least a couple of hours
should be spent touring all the nooks and crannies
of its' interior. We recommend that you pay for a
guide who are available for hire outside as they really
know their stuff and will wow you with some grizzly
tales of the Colosseum's shady past. The Colosseum
has recently been controversally adorned with flurooscent
lights which make it just as spectacular in the evenings...
Did you know?
The Colosseum could
seat in excess of 60 thousand spectators... also the
Gladiator Residence Ludus Magnus which is located
on Via Labicana was connected to the Colosseum by
means of an underground tunnel stretching 200 metres. |
