Restored Circus Maximus unveiled in Rome
The restored Circus Maximus (Big-Circus), one of ancient Rome's biggest public entertainment venues, was recently unveiled to the public. The new arched walkways will take visitors along the remains of shops and brothels that were built into the ground level. The 2,800 year-old Circus Maximus had been the venue for various events throughout the city's history, including chariot races.
