I have had several people ask about our visit to the Colosseum in Rome Italy so here is a video of visit in May 2012. We originally put photos on-line. View and hear our tour guide tell about the Colosseum which is just east of Rome. Originally where a lake was, construction was started in 72AD and completed in just eight years by Titus who used prisoners from Judah. The Colosseum was built on the site of Nero's palace. Hear why it was built, by whom and about the staging of deadly combats of gladiators and wild animal fights for public viewing. We found this tour to be very interesting. It is about 26 Minutes. long.
