The Flavian Amphitheatre, better  known as the "Colosseum".  What can I say?  The structure is almost 2000 years old and it's still standing!  Took 40,000 slaves to help build it.  Held 50,000 spectators.  Very sad when thinking of what went on here.  We were able to see where the slaves, gladiators and animals were kept below.  Intricate holding-cell system.  "Thumbs up" for architecture.
