Circo Massimo
Ancient Arena
Back to Circo Massimo
I was very interested to see the great Circus Maximus and I was very dissapointed to see nothing at all... It's just a great patch of grass, now used as a park. So if you're not there just out of historical interest, or if you have a great imagination (enough to visualize the whole thing that is now missing), then don't waste your time...

Checking out this dumpy patch of dry grass was a huge waste of time and energy. There nothing interesting about it. Save your energy and don't come near it. I've never seen so much broken glass from bottles spread over such a big field.

I didn't know what to expect when I stumbled upon this area. I could almost imagine chariots racing around the circuit. Of course there is so little remaining of the 'original' circus, but that didn't matter to me. Now it is like a large park, an open green space where people can walk and jog and relax.

It was well worth it so see this milleniums old stadium situated in the shadows of the ruins of the Roman Imperial Palace. Quite a neat site to see!
