What makes Exclusive Colosseum Arena Floor Tour and Ancient Rome Access a unique experience ?
The Colosseum was the largest amphitheater in the Roman world. Unlike many earlier amphitheaters, which had been dug into hillsides to provide adequate support, the Colosseum was a freestanding structure made of stone and concrete. The distinctive exterior had three stories of arched entrances—a total of around 80—supported by semi-circular columns. Each story contained columns of a different order (or style),At the bottom were columns of the relatively simple Doric order, followed by Ionic and topped by the ornate Corinthian order.
