Rome's Colosseum shines after sunset as tourists dodge daytime blaze<br /><br />Tourists visiting Rome's Colosseum can now explore the ancient monument after sunset, as a new night-time tour aims to offer a cooler and less crowded experience during the city's peak summer heat.<br /><br />The initiative, titled "A Night at the Colosseum," features a 60-minute guided tour along the monument's first tier, the arena floor, and underground chambers that once housed gladiators and animals. The tour focuses on the history of the Colosseum as a venue for public spectacles during the Roman Empire, including animal hunts and gladiator combat.<br /><br />Visitors are guided through dimly lit corridors and viewing areas, with stops to observe displays of replica gladiator armor and multimedia installations showing aspects of restoration and excavation. <br /><br />REUTERS VIDEO<br /><br />Subscribe to The Manila Times Channel - https://tmt.ph/YTSubscribe <br />Visit our website at https://www.manilatimes.net <br /> <br />Follow us: <br />Facebook - https://tmt.ph/facebook <br />Instagram - https://tmt.ph/instagram <br />Twitter - https://tmt.ph/twitter <br />DailyMotion - https://tmt.ph/dailymotion <br /> <br />Subscribe to our Digital Edition - https://tmt.ph/digital <br />Sign up to our newsletters: https://tmt.ph/newsletters<br /> <br />Check out our Podcasts: <br />Spotify - https://tmt.ph/spotify <br />Apple Podcasts - https://tmt.ph/applepodcasts <br />Amazon Music - https://tmt.ph/amazonmusic <br />Deezer: https://tmt.ph/deezer <br />Tune In: https://tmt.ph/tunein<br /> <br />#TheManilaTimes<br />#WorldNews<br />#Rome
