Points forts

Itinéraire

1. 1

   Colosseum

   Enjoy the most exclusive areas of the Colosseum, where most visitors cannot access: the “Hypogeum” (or Underground level) and the Arena floor. The Hypogeum is a suggestive place, with narrow corridors and large blocks of travertine, where gladiators waited for the moment of glory. As you wander deep into its tunnels, you will almost hear the air resonate with their fierce battle cries, and the growls of the hungry animals ready to feast on their prey. The underground Colosseum was the behind-the-scenes of the deadly spectacles of the Flavian Amphitheatre. You will admire fragments of the original floor, the ancient drainage system, the rooms where gladiators waited to fight, the animals cages. You will see the reconstruction of an ancient lift which, anchored to a system of trapdoors above, connected the underground with the Arena floor, the central sand-covered wooden platform where the fights took place (‘arena’ was the Latin word for ‘sand’).

   Colosseum

   After the visite of the Underground, you will also access in the center stage of the Arena floor, the central sand-covered wooden platform where the fights took place (‘arena’ was the Latin word for ‘sand’). Here you will enjoy one of the best panoramic view of the Colosseum, imagining how the gladiators used to feel once appeared in front of 80.000 people before fighting. Access through the special Gate of Death and have your camera ready to take amazing pictures on the Colosseum. Finally the tour will continue on the first and second tiers of the Colosseum. Here, the panoramic terraces will give you an excellent opportunity to take more stunning photos and admire the monument from a privileged position. Learn more about its history, the bloody games it hosted, and loads of anecdotes and curiosities. For example, why is the Colosseum called Colosseum? How many types of games were held there? Even the Naval Battles? How did Romans flood the Colosseum?
