The Most Instagrammable Hotels in Colosseum, Italy


The construction of the Colosseum, also known as the Flavian Amphitheater, began around 71 AD under the Emperor Vespasian. This monument was founded in a valley between the hills of Palatine, Esquilino and Celio. In 80, nine years later, Emperor Tito inaugurated the Colosseum. This building became the largest Roman amphitheater built in the shape of an oval ring. Made of brick and travertine, it was later divided into five levels and could hold over 50,000 people! At the time, the closer a person was to the fighting arena, the higher his or her social rank. Despite the Second World War, the Colosseum has become a cultural asset of Rome and the world surviving wars and time.
