Description
A different perspective of the Arena di Verona offers this V for Verona. Verona Arena, 152 x123 metres, is the third largest Roman amphitheater in the world and is very well preserved. It was constructed in 30 AD using a cement and rubble mix called opus caementicum, bricks, and stone blocks set in square pillars to create an external façade of three levels of 72 arches, each one 2 metres wide, and reaching a total height of more than 30 metres. It is situated in the Piazza Bra and is home to the famous annual summer opera festival. Absolutely stunning when the performance coincides with a full moon!
The city of Verona is a UNESCO World Heritage Site

Such an amazingly beautiful capture you have taken here my friend that is allowing me after the time of Roman's empire 3rd century (when it divided in two parts West and East Roman empire, in it's East part Istanbul was under it), and I see here millions of humans are sitting there to watch some kind of entertainment through window! Thank you so much dear Catherine to allow me studying it with your spectacular capture, all in one with beautiful defined angle! :)
