Some of my favourite photos of the Colosseum. The Colosseum was started under Emperor Vespasian in 72AD and was completed under Emperor Titus in 80AD. It is still the largest ever-built amphitheatre. Originally called the Favian Amphitheatre.The Victory Arch was built by Emperor Constantine in 301AD.We went to the Castle Di Angelo the last time we were here, so we just took a photograph from the top of the Hop-on-Hop-off bus.Looking down on the little boat fountain from the Spanish Steps.The small Obelisk at the top of the steps. Even though this young woman is sitting, walking up the steps is much easier since they changed the law preventing crowds from sitting all day on the steps.Once more, back at the Trevi fountain, and although busy at the front looking straight on, it’s not as busy as our last time here.Just stopped for a chat with Julius. I tried to warn him to be aware of the Ides of March, but he believed everyone loved him. He should have given the Senate a miss that day.The building at the bottom of our accommodation’s street, is yes you have gussed, my favourite building, the Colosseum.
