The Colosseum is undisputedly one of the greatest entertainment venues the world has ever seen, but hearing stories alone will not give you a complete grasp of leisure life and battle back then. This is the very site where one million lives were lost to battles, as crowds roared at the carnage and emperors grinned with satisfaction.
You will now make your way up into the seating area, where you cannot help but be inspired by history as you stand where over 50,000 Roman spectators once stood in anticipation of the games. You guide will give you your very own LivItaly Virtual Reality cardboard glasses so you can enjoy 360° Virtual Reality reconstructions of the Colosseum.
