Once the place of brutal games, now the icon of Rome, the Colosseum is a must, but also means a chilling experience.
It is when you read about the history and the function of the place that it really comes to life. That history is tainted by cruelty, by blood, by macabre games and, by modern standards, sick appetite for merciless pleasure. In the first 100 days when games where staged here, some 9000 animals are reported to have been killed, often in one to one fights. Of course, the gladiator fights were another main attraction of this stadium, where the audience was chosen to decide the fate of the competitors.
