We went sightseeing in Rome on the weekend. We visited the Colosseum. I was overwhelmed by its elaborate construction that I could not believe it was built about 2,000 years ago.

On weekends, there is a market in one of the squares. We went looking for fresh food and souvenirs. It was very crowded.
