Colosseum and the forum

Updated: Jan 20, 2023

The next day we visited the colosseum which had very dense energy and then the roman forum, including the palatine hill and Flavian palace. Here are some locations:


Notes on locations

Temple of Vesta(Fire) - "eternal flame" tended by the vestal virgins

Reserved seating for senators

Garden and fountain in private quarters of emperor

Row of sea pine with our guide

Constantine column (made emperor in York and made Christianity a state religion of Rome)

Colosseum movable floors



The day finished with a private mission back to St Peters after a long lunch of pizzas. Other groups visited the 3 catacomb tunnel systems.



Domus Santa Martha - the residence of Pope Francis which is right net to the reptile house (Paul VI audience hall)




All given the "treatment".


and then a celebration meal - limoncello care bears at St Peters cafe
