The Roman Colosseum history is, its an amphitheater that was built between 70-72 A.D. It was built during the Flavian Dynasty by Emperor Vespasian. In ancient times this place was used for organizing games, gladiator combats, and animal fights. Over many centuries the structure has been partially destroyed and the material from the Colosseum was used to build other structures until the 18th century.

There are different types of Colosseum tours available such as from inside, night tour and etc. A night tour inside the Colosseum can cost nearly $80.

“There is no way that such a thing could be done without direct permission from the highest levels of the Vatican. The Colloseum of Rome is owned by the Vatican, and specifically the Diocese of Rome, also called the Holy See.
