Rome
Rome is the capital city of Italy. This city is the biggest and most populated in the country. The population is around 2.87 million. Rome is the center of the Roman Catholic Church. Rome is also home to the Vatican City. The legend of Rome claims that it happened on the 21 of April in 753 BC. At this time Romulus and Remus founded Rome. Here in Rome there are a lot of sights. My favourite is the Colosseum.
Colosseum
The Colosseum is an ancient Roman architecture. It’s 188m long and 156m wide and 48.5m high. It has five floors. The ancient building is made of limestone, wood and brick. They completed the building in 80 AD, in the 2nd century. Titus opened up the building with a ceremony. On the opening day 5000 wild animals were shown. In the building the gladiators were fighting for their life. The Colosseum is the one of the seven wonders of the world. Rome is a beautiful city that’s why I want to visit it in the future. There’s a lot of sight and places that we can explore. You can also learn from the history of the ancient Rome, or you can just visit some restaurant and try the Italian foods.
