Arles's Roman marvels

 

In 90 AD, the Romans began adding an arena to the ancient city of Arles, modeled after the newly completed Colosseum in Rome.For centuries, it was a stage for gladiators, entertaining 25,000 spectators with the drama of combat. Today, it's celebrated as a UNESCO World Heritage site, a crown jewel of Roman and Romanesque Monuments, and a key landmark on the Routes of Santiago de Compostela in France.
