The Colosseum is quite a sight and very hard to believe it's size without going inside. This is now 2007 years old and the city of Rome has ongoing restoration to hold it's remains together. This Colosseum held 73,000 people and had enough exits that it be completely emptied in 15 minutes. It was home to sporting events where gladiator fights and animal hunts were held. Behind us down low, you see many pens and rooms where animals and prisoners were held under a massive wood floor that is now partly rebuilt.
