It's the most iconic Roman structure in the world and you can't miss it, despite the crowds. I can't believe loads of the stone was used elsewhere, and how enormous and imposing it must have been for those poor gladiators who fought there.

Totally iconic and absolutley amazing, the size, the atmosphere, I can't imagine how terrifying it would have been to fight in that arena with all the crowd looking down on you! The best roman place i've ever been to!
