Built to accommodate 60,000 seated people and another 10,000 standing guests, at any given time the amphitheater was crowded with at least 70,000 spectators. The outer facade of the building, equivalent to a 12-story building, has columns and arches built using different styles; Tuscan at the bottom, Ionic in the middle, and Corinthian at the top. Instead of arches and columns on the fourth level of the Colosseum, the building features small windows. While the rest of the Colosseum was mainly white, the Arena was made using red and black stone blocks. The Romans covered the arena’s wooden floor with sand to prevent the combatants from slipping and make cleaning easy post gladiator fights!
Combatants entered the arena through a Gate of Life whereas the Gate of Death was used for the exit of the victorious and gladiators killed during the fight! While the Underground and the Belvedere (the top level) were not accessible to the public for the longest time, don’t miss out on traveling back in time as these exclusive areas have recently opened to tourists. It is a one-of-a-kind walk down the lanes of history and a must-visit if you are in Rome.
Colosseum is a 620 x 513 feet elliptical building, once the site of an artificial lake. The lake was drained to make way for the Colosseum, to signify the end of a tyrannical rule. The centuries-old building stands as an iconic monument for Rome.
