6. The Colosseum or Coliseum, also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre is an oval amphitheatre in the centre of the city of Rome. Built of travertine, tuff, and brick-faced concrete, it is the largest amphitheatre ever built. The Colosseum is situated just east of the Roman Forum. Construction started with the emperor Vespasian in AD 72, and was completed in AD 80 under his successor and heir Titus. Further modifications were made during the reign of Domitian (81–96). These three emperors are known as the Flavian dynasty, and the amphitheatre was named in Latin for its association with their family name (Flavius). On the other hand, the name Colosseum is believed to be derived from a colossal statue of Nero that once stood nearby.

About Roma

Roma sobrepõe quase três mil anos de história numa cidade para percorrer a pé, do Coliseu e do Fórum às praças barrocas e à arte do Vaticano.

A Roma antiga continua à vista de todos. O Coliseu, o Fórum Romano e o Palatino erguem-se juntos no coração da cidade, o Panteão mantém-se de pé com o seu óculo aberto, e fragmentos de templos e aquedutos surgem entre os prédios de habitação. Do outro lado do Tibre, a Cidade do Vaticano guarda a Basílica de São Pedro, os Museus do Vaticano e o teto da Capela Sistina pintado por Miguel Ângelo.
