Roman Colosseum

   The place that I visited this spring is cold the Colosseum. One of the wonders of the world, which is still very well-preserved and, of course, visited by million of tourists.
   It is situated in Rome, which is one of the most ancient place, connected with the history of the country and the world.
   The history of the place is closely connected with Yulius Caesor, the time, when the Roman Impire was very powerful and conquered many cities and countries of the world.
   While stepping I was trying to imagine fights, gladiators, ranging animals. The guide was speaking about the free games, the emperors used the Colosseum to entertain the publik with. Those games were a symbol of prestige and power and they were a way for an emperor to increase his popularity. Games were started with comical acts and displays of animals and ended with fights to the death between animals and gladiators. The fighters were usually slaves, prisoners of war or condemned criminals.
   I was looking at the Colosseum and thinking how beautiful, magnificent it is. It could house so many people!
In spite of being so old, it is really great and keeps a lot of history inside.
   During the ages it was being distroyed, but now people started to care about the Colosseum as a monument of power and history and the fury of the crowd.
   The Colosseum should be a must place to be visited by tourists who come to Rome. As this place is connected with the most remarcable time of the Roman Impare.
   Though it is in ruins, we can feel the atmosphere af this times and inequality of people living side by side with most prominent liders.
