Built around 90 AD in what is now the city of Arles, the Roman ampitheater could originally seat some 25,000 spectators. In the Middle Ages it was filled with houses and served as a fortified emplacement. Restored progressively over the past 250 years, it is used today as a bull ring and for concerts.

No passado homens eram jogados dentro destas arenas para lutar com as feras,onde geralmente eram atacados,mortos e devorados sob os olhares de centenas de telespectadores,um espectáculo dantesco que felizmente pertence ao passado. Parabéns pela foto.
