Get to know a city through film: Rome edition - SilverKris

"An ancient amphitheater whose close juxtaposition with modern commercial activity (notably a motorcycle dealer opposite it) was cited as an example of how old and new coexist in Rome, a contrast explicitly used by a new-generation filmmaker to illustrate social and spatial tensions." - Levin Tan

Amphitheatrum Castrense

A very underrated area of Rome complete with an impressive amphitheater, archways as well as the remains of aqueducts and the Aurelian wall. Very cool!

The Amphitheatrum Castrense dates to the 3rd century. Its walls were incorporated into the Aurelian Walls, while its interior was adapted into a garden for the convent of the Basilica of the Holy Cross in Jerusalem.

Same as the pyramide of Cestio this building has been saved by pure accident by incorporating it into the walls. It show the messy and "temporary" plan for the quick as possible build of city defences by reusing structures on the way (as every temporary solution it also remained in use for 1600 years). The walls of Constantinopolis were build by plan and much better designed.
