Overview

No visit to Rome is complete without a visit to the Roman Colosseum. As one of the most recognized landmarks in the world, the Colosseum stands today as an iconic symbol of ancient imperial Rome. Commissioned in 72 AD by emperor Vespasian and completed by his son Titus in 80 AD, the Colosseum has withstood devastating earthquakes, fires, and stone-robbers over the centuries. Despite being in near constant use for over 1900 years, the structure is incredibly well preserved.In 1980, the historic center of Rome including the Colosseum was added as a UNESCO World Heritage site and in 2001 was voted as one of the New Seven Wonders of the world. Roman law prohibited burying of the dead inside the old city walls, for sanitary reasons.
The first Christians, rather, maintaining that they should be ready for the Resurrection, were not cremated but buried in the underground caves, dug in tufo or lava pietra.The Roman catacombs were constructed along the ancient Roman roads.

Colosseum

Rome's Colosseum, one of the seven wonders of the world, is another one of those items for the bucket list. Voted by 90 million people in a survey 2007, the Colosseum has become one of the New Wonders of the World. It was evaluated by a team of experts - led by the former UNESCO Director General, Federico Mayor - as a masterpiece of unquestionable value, loved by the Romans and by the rest of the world. The Flavian Amphitheatre, built by the Emperor Vespasian, was the venue for the games that took place in ancient Rome. Very famous were the gladiator fights, usually performed slaves or prisoners of war, trained with the aim of ferociously and bravely fighting in order to regain their freedom.

Catacombs of Saint Callixtus

Visiting the catacombs means undertaking a journey through subterranean Rome, where one can discover the gallery of tunnels in which first the pagans, then Christians buried their dead. Fascinating places that narrate ancient Roman customs and traditions, more than 60 catacombs and thousands of tombs exist in and around Rome. The Roman catacombs were constructed along the ancient Roman roads (viae consulares) – Via Appia, Ostiense, Labicana, Tiburtina, and Nomentana. Only five catacombs are open to the public today : San Callisto, San Sebastiano and Santa Domitilla in the Appia Antica zone, and Priscilla and S.Agnes in the area of Nomentano-Salario.
