448 / 5 000 The monumental buildings, the beautiful view that awaited us gave us eternal memories. Two small negatives are that there is no toilet at the prison where we picked up our tickets, the closest one is in the cafes between the prison and the Colosseum. The other is that it would make it easier to find your way around in the Colosseum if the stations were marked with numbers, because it is more difficult for those who go without a guide to find their way around. The entrance was quick and easy, everything went smoothly.

Today I visited the Colosseum and the Forum. As soon as I walked in, it touched me more than I expected. The walls, the smell of stone and the silence among all those people felt almost magical. In the Colosseum, I thought about what once happened here, about the stories contained in those stones. And in the Forum, among the ruins in the sun, I felt how small I really am compared to time. Everything seemed to stand still for a moment.

We looked up online and it said the crowds and queues would take an hour to get through so got there early. Managed to get through the fast moving queue in about 5 minutes. Directions to the Mamertine prison were poor and there wasn't anything to really see there so wouldn't suggest but the coleseum and Palestine hill were amazing with great views.

    The whole experience was awesome but didnt realise the Palatine Hill was part of the lower ruins so we came out to see the Colossium after the seeing all of the lower area then was unable to return to get to the top later. Signage wasnt good and didnt make us aware. Shame as the rest of the experience was reaaly good

    It was crowded, the exhibits felt unorganized, and the general sense was that people were hurrying through 90% of the exhibits just to get to the Cartography room and Sistin Chapel.
