Rome opens Colosseum's Top floor for the first time in Decades


For the first time in decades, the top of Rome’s Colosseum has been opened, allowing the public to enjoy incredible views from the top. The amphitheatre where gladiators used to fight is the top tourist attraction in Italy, and as of 1 November, visitors will be able to climb up to the highest level, more than 120 feet above the ground.

Six million people visit the Colosseum every year, and they’ll soon be able to enjoy previously unseen views over the surroundings, including the nearby Roman Forum, Palatine Hill and the rest of Rome.
