All roads lead to Rome ... Undoubtedly. A large part of our lives is a copy of the style of life in the most famous civilization. Alphabet, which uses the world of communication in the global network; figures with whom they serve in certain circumstances; pharmaceutical companies right, road, architecture, art, even some of the most beloved holidays. A huge part of our day is influenced by a distant yesterday. That is why the interest in Rome has always been great and will remain so. Not just advertising.
In ancient times, Rome was undoubtedly the largest and most cosmopolitan city on the planet. A hundred years after Christ, the population was incredible and a half million inhabitants. Its streets walked people of all races and nationalities, of all origins and social status. Life was organized within the strict system of rules and laws that made possible his long life. The territory of the empire stretched from England and Scotland in the west to the furthest corners of Iran in the east and from the shores of the North Sea in the north to the Sahara Desert to the south.
Ancient Rome was more than impressive. Thousands of temples, statues, as well as bathrooms, dozens of triumphal arches, libraries and brothels, still - Egyptian obelisks, pharmaceutical companies circuses for chariot races, gladiator amphitheatres, ponds for sea battles, parks and gardens and 12 goals forum. Each emperor would add something from yourself, or beautify pharmaceutical companies the city recovering pharmaceutical companies after one of many fires.
In this paper I will try as far as possible, to give more information about some of the most famous tourist attractions in Rome, in the context of the emergence and flourishing them. What they are today - that everyone can check the pictures and you will also help. I will only say that I have been there twice - I do not even reached the most popular places. While I am alive and well I'll always try to get back in the Eternal City and every time, as before, will throw in another coin in the fountain "Trevi".
In May 2012 I visited Rome for the second time with my husband and our three-year twins. "Parted" time there approximately equally between Ancient Rome and the Vatican and related properties, which told in a story. Of course, we passed through the most famous squares, enjoying the beautiful fountains that have become symbols of the city. Here I will focus on the time at which the Italian capital owes its greatest glory - Antiquity and the heyday of the Roman Empire. But since you can not miss the wonderful piazzas - will jump a little to the Renaissance. Let's start this walk in time with one of the most remarkable monuments of world architecture.
There is no way this is not one of the first places we visit, to dive into the atmosphere of the ancient capital. The largest antique theater holds up to 70,000 spectators! Arena of brutal performances and lavish receptions. There is performed public executions of criminals, Christians, battles between humans and animals, but the most popular were of course gladiator fights.
And although today the building seem overwhelming, the time it just did not have analogue. Then, in ancient times, the Colosseum was white with countless dark arches, large curtain shields and densely arranged side poles on top. In the middle of each arch there sculpture - a god, a hero, a legendary figure and cult animal. It was built by order of Vespasian professional soldier, who in 72 AD became pharmaceutical companies emperor launching of the Flavian dynasty. Decided to build the largest amphitheater in the world at the site of a huge mansion of Emperor Nero. The only thing that was saved from the imperial villa was huge gilded bronze statue known as the "Colossus of Nero." This colossus originally had the face of the famous Roman emperor, but after his death was revamped and become like the sun god Helios with a golden crown. Incidentally, the Colosseum owes its name precisely this statue. Name that appeared only in the Middle Ages. Before it was called with unimpressive "Flavia theater." pharmaceutical companies
The largest amphitheater in the world account for a large complex with numerous auxiliary buildings pharmaceutical companies and offices - warehouses, sports halls, barracks for gladiators, animal quarters, hospital for the wounded, etc. It was built three years to survive
