The afternoon tour took us to St. Peter in Chains Church, the Coliseum, Circus Maximus, and the Forum. St. Peter in Chains Roman Catholic Church is best known for being the home of Michelangelo's statue of Moses. The Coliseum, also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre, is an elliptical amphitheatre in the centre of the city. Circus Maximus is an ancient Roman chariot racing stadium. The Roman Forum is a rectangular forum surrounded by the ruins of several ancient government buildings. Of everything we saw so far we liked the Coliseum and ancient ruins the best. They were amazing to see.

I agree, your photos are fantastic! Looks just like I remembered it! Isn't the Forum where all the stray cats live now?
