Nightlife in Piazza Campo de' Fiori. Selfie sticks are everywhere.

First lunch in Rome at an extremely popular and busy pizza by the slice shop. Chaotic!

This was super zoomed in and you can still just barely see Michelangelo's work.

Interior of Colosseum where 50,000 Romans watched Gladiators, games, animal fights, etc. This lower part is being renovated to better show how it looked before the Colosseum was looted of it's marble. Lower left where the cross is is where the Emperor sat.

Thy lets the gladiator live.

This side of the Colosseum is amazing. There used to be statues in each archway.

Victor Emmanuel monument named after the first King of Rome. Also known as Vittoriano.

Trajan's column. 140 ft. tall. Stories are told scrolling around the tower - if unrolled would be 200 yards.

Pasta! Fettuccini and Ravioli.

Pantheon at night. Amazing that these columns were imported from Egypt.

Looking up at the Occulus in the Pantheon. Amazing. Almost two thousand years after it was built, the Pantheon's dome is still the world's largest unreinforced concrete dome.

The hoof of the horse is actually large enough to lay across.

Guards guard the eternal flame. Modeled after the vestal fires in ancient Rome.
