Episode of the Roman Colosseum [Colosseo]

Firstly, we visited the popular landmark of Rome "The Roman Colosseum [Colosseo in Italian]”. As soon as we arrived in front of the Roman Colosseum, we were surprised to see a long line of people waiting to enter the Colosseo.

If we have a Roma Pass, we can get direct access to the Colosseum. So before going to Rome, we thought about buying Roma Passes... but we didn't have so much time to visit many museums with a Roma Pass so it was not so profitable for us. So we decided to buy regular tickets and look around Rome in our ways.

We waited for 15 - 20 minutes and we could enter the Colosseo. It was faster than we thought.
After walking a little bit from the entrance, we found a ticket booth.
The ticket is a combined ticket of Colosseum, Roman Forum and Palatine Hill and it's valid for two days.

We visited from the second floor of the Colosseum at first. As soon as we entered the inside of Colosseo, we were overwhelmed to see magnificent and degnified architechture of the Colosseum. The Colosseo totally changes the appearance and colour with or without the sunshine. You had better see the Flavian Amphitheatre (Colosseum) in many directions because each view is very different.
Then we went down to the first floor. We saw the inside of Colosseo again from the first floor. We liked the view from the first floor more than the one from the second floor. Because we felt the grandeur and greatness of Colosseo more.

When we were in the Colosseo, we admired the person who had invented this architecture, and also the people who had built such a big solid Colosseum with huge stones. At the same time, we were so impressed that the Roman Colosseum was built long, long time ago, and it remained still now. We could feel the history from the Colosseo and we were very happy to be in such a historical Colosseum.
