Casey in Rome

The Roman Forum was the center of political and social activity where public speeches and elections took place. It also served as the marketplace and business district of Rome.

After the Roman Empire fell, the Forum was used as a cattle pasture. Today, many fragments still remain from this massive site. The arch of Titus and the arch of Septimius Severus still stand.

No holiday to Rome is complete without a visit to the icon of this city. Next, we will make our way to the great Colosseum, which was originally known as the Flavian Amphitheater. It was the largest building of its time. Emperor Vespasian started the Colosseum, and eight years later it was completed. This elliptical building can hold more than 55,000 people!

You will enter the Colosseum with your guide who has your tickets to skip the line. This is the best of the classical Rome tours.

Roman Forum

Emperors used the Colosseum for games and circuses. This was a place where entertainment was provided for those who lived in the city of Rome as well as a centralized place where free food was handed out. This place is also known for having games with wild exotic animals and gladiators.

Part of the reason of the collapse of the building was due to an earthquake.

Once again, you are using your time wisely and you will end your tour of the Colosseum and Forum with a new found appreciation for the magnitude and power of it's history.
