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.
