In the heart of Rome, the living legend, the Colosseum.

The Colosseum (Colosseo, Piazza del Colosseo, 1, Roma) is the very symbol of a trip to Rome. Standing before it for the first time, its grandeur left me speechless 😮. Imagining tens of thousands of spectators cheering for games here 2,000 years ago made me feel as if I had traveled back in time. Each weathered stone column holds the history of Rome, and even the shadows cast by sunlight brushing against its walls were beautiful ☀️.

While the exterior is impressive, the real awe begins when you step inside the Colosseum. Walking through the arched corridors, you can see the entrances where gladiators once appeared and the seats where emperors sat 👑. The underground structures reveal how meticulously the games were prepared, showcasing the remarkable engineering and artistry of ancient Rome. When sunlight streams through the circular skylight, the scene feels like something out of a movie 🎞️.

The Colosseum is not just a tourist attraction but a place that seems to embody the very essence of Rome as a city. If you also visit the nearby Roman Forum and Palatine Hill, you'll find so much to see that the day will fly by! Be sure to go in the late afternoon to catch the sunset and stay for the night view 🫶🏻.
