Today we visited the Colosseum and the areas nearby including the Forum and Palentine Hill. Lots of ruins in all 3 areas, made me think about how they were built and lived around 2000 years ago. I wonder what has changed and what’s stayed the same between the people living then and now. Not to mention the time in between when the world was a much darker place. One issue we had was a lot of exits/entrances were closed likely due to COVID so we had a hard time finding our way out.
After lunch at a nearby open market we went to the Trevi Fountain and Spanish Steps. Both were crowded and touristy but worth the visit. Had dinner at a nice restaurant across the river then gelato one last time.
