Colosseum

The experience

The largest amphitheatre ever built, begun under Emperor Vespasian in AD 72 and completed under Titus in AD 80. Its tiered travertine arcades once held tens of thousands of spectators for gladiatorial games and public spectacles. A UNESCO World Heritage Site and the enduring symbol of Imperial Rome, it anchors the archaeological heart of the city.

To stand inside the arena that defined Roman spectacle and see two thousand years of engineering up close.
