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 at the Hotel Mascagni 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.
