Once the place of brutal games, now the icon of Rome, the Colosseum is a must, but also means a chilling experience.
Nowadays the floor does not exist anymore, which makes the catacombs clearly visible. It was there that gladiators and animals were waiting for their fights. The wooden floor was covered with a layer of sand (arena in Latin), chosen to absorb the blood of the "sportsmen". Even to modern standards, the stadium could cold a huge audience (some 70 000). While walking around on the centre stage, it is inevitable to fantasize about the fights held here, imagining the audience and the cheers, and wondering about the human mind.
