The masterpiece of the world - the Colosseum

It is often said that there are Parthenon temples in Greece, pyramids in Egypt, Colosseum in Rome, Notre Dame in Paris and Yuanmingyuan in the east. I want to talk about the Colosseum in Rome. After watching the movie "Gladiator", the Colosseum in Rome left an indelible impression on my heart. I saw the glory of the Colosseum and the darkness surrounded by glory.

The Colosseum is glorious. It is full of artistic atmosphere, scientific and regular patterns, exquisite and gorgeous crafts. It is the representative of Roman architecture. The Colosseum is famous for its majestic and spectacular atmosphere. It is a masterpiece and miracle in the history of architecture. The complex and gorgeous Colosseum shows the posture of the Roman Empire, which makes the world feel.

But what Rome reminds me is not the glory of architecture, but the performance in the Colosseum. The Colosseum is a place for rulers, nobles, and slave owners to watch the beasts or slaves. Gladiators are generally slaves and captives. They fight with their lives, are cut off one hand, and are cut off a piece of meat until the loser falls. The failed person may die in a bloody coat, and the audience may decide his life and death. The aristocrats who used their bloody bodies to fight laughed, and the mutual killing of people not only did not arouse the conscience of those in the upper class, but also made them feel uncomfortable. A 100-day celebration was held during the completion of the Colosseum project in 80 AD. The rulers of ancient Rome drove 5,000 beasts and 3,000 slaves, prisoners of war, and criminals to fight. This kind of human and beast, the bloody killing of human beings lasted for 100 days, knowing that these 3,000 lives and 5,000 beasts Kill each other and die together. No wonder some people say that as long as you grab a handful of dirt on the corner table and put it in your hand, you can see the blood stains printed on your palm. I seem to see the mud that blends with the blood represents the miserable mourning of the slaves of the dark ages.

The Colosseum was brilliant, but the slavery society of the ancient Roman Empire made it branded with its contrast - the brand of darkness.
