The Roman Coliseum, called in antiquity Flavian Amphitheater, is the largest amphitheater in Rome, made during the Roman Empire and the most amazing monument in Rome. Every year 7 million people visit it.

Amphitheater Flavio El is the main symbol of Rome, an imposing construction that, with almost 2,500 years old, will take you back in time to discover what the ancient society of the Roman Empire was like.

The construction of the amphitheater began in the year 72 under the Vespasian regime and ended in the year 82 during the mandate of Emperor Titus. After the completion of the construction, the Colosseum became the largest amphitheater in Rome, measuring 188 meters in length, 156 meters in width and 58 meters in height. An imposing structure at that time.
