The Colosseo Roma is the eternal symbol of Rome having
been constructed more than 2000 years ago - still
standing the Colosseo 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 Colosseo 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... but it is ok if you want to go
in and make a home movie....
To get to the Colosseo from the Belli
Guest House Hotel Rome ou can get a taxi or bus as
far as Piazza Venezia and then walk down the Fori
Imperiali or Imperial Roman Forum which is closed
to traffic on a Sunday. The Colosseo Rome 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 Belli Guest
House Rome 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 Rome has recently been
controversally adorned with flurooscent lights which
make it just as spectacular in the evenings....
Did you Know? The Colosseo could
seat in excess of 60 thousand spectators... also the
Gladiator Residence Ludus Magnus which is located
on Via Labicana 50 metres from the Belli Guest House
Rome - was connected to the Colosseo by means of an
underground tunnel stretching 200 metres...
