ColosseumPass-by Only
The exterior of the Colosseum, also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre, is an impressive symbol of ancient Roman engineering and architectural prowess, constructed between AD 70-80 under Emperor Vespasian and his son Titus. Its grand façade features three levels of towering arches adorned with columns in the Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian orders, showcasing the Roman mastery of design and aesthetics. Originally, the structure was covered in travertine limestone, giving it a majestic appearance that could accommodate up to 50,000 to 80,000 spectators for gladiatorial contests, public spectacles, and other events. Over centuries, the Colosseum has endured earthquakes, stone robbing, and modern development, yet it remains a powerful emblem of Rome’s imperial history and architectural innovation, drawing millions of visitors from around the world.( outside)
Circo Massimo
The Circus Maximus, located in Rome, is one of the world's oldest and largest ancient Roman entertainment venues, with origins dating back to the 6th century BCE, traditionally attributed to the early kings of Rome. Originally a simple chariot racing track, it was expanded and renovated multiple times, reaching its peak in the Roman Empire, especially during the Republican and Imperial periods. The circus could accommodate up to 150,000 spectators who gathered to watch chariot races, which were among the most popular and thrilling events in ancient Rome. Its elongated oval shape, measured about 2,000 meters in length, with a central barrier called the spina decorated with obelisks and statues, served as the focal point of the races. Over time, the Circus Maximus fell into disuse, especially after the decline of the Roman Empire, but its ruins remain a testament to Rome’s grand entertainment culture and engineering ingenuity.
Bocca della Verita
The Mouth of Truth, or Bocca della Verità, is an ancient marble mask located in Rome's church of Santa Maria in Cosmedin, believed to date back to the 1st century CE, possibly as a fountain or drain cover from the Roman period. Its iconic, expressive face features an open mouth, which has captivated visitors for centuries, fostering legends that it serves as a lie detector—believed to bite the hand of anyone who tells a lie while their hand is placed inside. The monument gained fame in the Middle Ages and Renaissance, partly due to its mention in popular stories and artworks, and was famously featured in the 1953 film Roman Holiday. Today, it remains a popular tourist attraction, symbolizing medieval superstitions and Roman history, and continues to inspire stories about truth and deception.
