ProWalks - Amazing video, which ticket did you have to be able to go underneath? We are going next month and I’m wondering which ticket to buy, would a RomaPass cover it? Thank you!
@Kepano 808HI He has the ability to cut and splice so we really dont know how much editing he has done. I appreciate the consistent pace that these walks are done. No interaction with others is fine with me. That would be waste of my time as a viewer. Thanx for walking tours. I have watched many of them. Spent many hours taking these walks.
I've seen the collesium on TV and it just does not do justice to the massive size of this complex. Your camera view makes one appreciate even more that this place was built by hand and without modern machines. Absolutely incredible.
Hey guys, I came to your videos because my mom who cant travel to these places loves to watch them and really enjoys them. She doesnt speak english so I was thinking that if you ever want to in translate the english texts to spanish I can do it as a support for your channel,. at least if you could add them as closed captions for other viewers that might not understand them, maybe we could collaborate somehow, not looking for money nor anything else, just helping echoter out. Best wishes and great channel!
The Colosseum provided people with building material over centuries as pieces of the Colosseum fell to the ground during earthquake. The Colosseum had a marble façade and marble seats on the inside. When they were looking around for material to build Saint Peter's Basilica in the 15th century, the Colosseum was the closest "quarry." When you visit Saint Peter's Vatican, you are also visiting part of the Colosseum. What a great tour you have given us.
@@rswow how can you imagine this bullshit pal, with all due respect I think it is obvious that to take even a piece of the colosseum in st peter you should destroy the church and on the top of that these pieces are not how you think, they have been re worked and reused, they are not just stones on the wall
@@rswow at the time was part of papal state which was made up of central italy . popes ordered the demolition of many roman buildings for building materials, had they not there would be more to see in rome. luckily the bronze doors of the pantheon were spared after it was initially ordered to melt down
This is perhaps the best "Virtual Walking Tour" I have ever seen. The additional information you provided throughout the video made it all that much better. Thank you. Bravo!!!
One of the things my family and I did during our visit to the Colosseum back in Oct 2004 was to turn off the cherry cell phone, we did our best to ignore the chattering tourists & immerse ourselves in the experience of sight and imagination, one can really feel the bloody spectacles that took place therein, it was a fantastic moment for us, thank you for your excellent work.
One thing that struck me about the Colosseum was that, although the actual inside of the arena was such a complete ruin that it took a huge amount of imagination to appreciate it, walking the concourse was an amazing experience (as seen in the first 5 minutes). To me, it was amazing to know I was walking the same ground thousands of Romans walked while going to and from the actual viewing stands.
@MUFC This is a tour of the Roman Colosseum. There's no one here pushing any particular sport. What does your obsession with soccer have to do with this video? And do you have a crystal ball, that you're making these predictions? If anyone were even remotely interested in the future you're peddling, they wouldn't be HERE.
Thank you for this thoroughly fantastic tour. No talking, just focusing on all areas, levels, steps, ceiling, floor, walls. It truly took my imagination there. The view on the third level just led me to think, what were they thinking as they saw that view during that era. It was amazing with no distractions.
Not only you are preserving the memory of these incredible places, but you are also providing education and entertainment for a lot of people all around the world! During these hard times we are living, your videos are a breath of fresh air and a great source of sanity. Thank you so much!
Stripped of its marbled glory. Been there just 3 weeks ago. This great video offers recollections and add-ons to parts I’ve never seen like the underground dungeons. Thanks.
Just discovered your videos today. Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to travel to places I will never have the pleasure of going. The best thing is that you dated this tour September 23, 2017 which is coincidentally my birthday, so what a treat this was. It definitely beats where i did go that day by leaps and bounds! LOL! Keep up the fantastic work that you do - it is most appreciated!!!
Hi Sharon, thanks for taking the time to leave feedback. Yeah, watching a documentary on the Colosseum doesn't have the same effect as actually being there so i hope the video made you feel like now you've really seen it.....on your birthday. :) thanks for watching. If you have any walking video suggestions feel free to let me know.
I was in Rome one week ago and enjoyed great visits to the Palatine Hill and Colosseum, as well as other places. Your videos of both these places are absolutely stunning. Brilliant work and so nice to just SEE the places and recall all the happy memories I have of them rather than listen to someone else's idea of what I am looking at. I am certain that these two videos are the very best I have ever seen of this type of presentation. Many, many thanks.
Hey, thanks for the great compliment! Yeah, I figure the focus of the videos should be the site, not me. I'm glad you're enjoying the videos and that they help remind you of your trip.
WOW... your video tours are so impressive, very nicely done and no camera shakes... I've been watching them on the huge screen and I really enjoying them! Keep up the good work!
Thanks for this tour. It is impressive to see the Colosseum after so many years of being built. I cannot travel but these videos make me transport myself to the places that interest me. Greetings from Mexico.
Thank you for uploading this. It's such a treat, I can't think of a way I'd ever get this view without a virtual walk and this is not hard on the old knees. Peace and Love.
While I sit in my house sick & under quarantine in northern California from possibly having caught the coronavirus in Italy a week & a half ago, I was not able to go inside the Colosseum then because the ticket lines were too long, however, I did go around it a few times outside. I just want to thank you for the hour long walking tour of the inside which I am enjoying immensely! And by the way, I haven’t developed a fever and I am going to be off quarantine March 1.
If you are going back to Rome again you walk to the roman forum ticket box up the hill from attraction, no long lines, VIP pass to to Colosseum included in ticket
Hey Robert, I hope you are doing well. I know things are still pretty crazy over there in California. Here in Italy things aren't going too well but time will tell. I'm glad you enjoyed the tour. Sorry you weren't able to go in while you are there. I would like to go back here soon and film it again while it is all empty. Thanks for watching Robert.
If only the Colosseum could talk hey. Amazing place with so much history. Thank you so much for this great video. We all appreciate it. From Australia 🇦🇺
Hi this is really terrific, it really gives me the sense of being there, with the natural sound of the people and the subtle illustrations, thank you so much
WOW...Thank you so very,very much...your virtual tour of the Eiffel Tower was absolutely THE best and easiest explained and viewed tour I have ever done...I congratulate you for explaining and answering all concerns regarding this magnificent structure....You have made me now even more than ever before so eager to reach the summit of this spectacular monument. GOD BLESS YOU HUGS....from Australia
Loved the vid... i went there October 8th for the 1st time and it blew my mind... Rome itself was beautiful and the Colosseum tour i had was great. However... you vid has shown me the other side of the colosseum that our tour guide did not show ! So im very greatful of this video. Stunning !!
I can't wrap my mind around the fact that security was handled by Roman Centurions in the plated and pleated skirts with their short swords. It's just crazy when you think about how old the place is, and the things that went on. So fascinating
This magnificent structure stands as a testament of the power and glory of an empire that spanned a vast territory. A people of incredible architural genius capable of building great structures many of which are still standing and in use today. They conquered all of of modern day Europe and beyond spreading their culture and knowledge,. governance and structure to often uncivilized regions. they paved the way to the world we live in today. As we walk past or within the walls of these incredible structures of those long past civilizations we should be in awe of their greatness because we live in their shadows and we shall never see their likes again. Thank you for the great job you did bringing this video to us.
Thank you so much❤ Always enjoy your uploads. Have only seen the Coliseum in Books & History Channels. If I never get to Rome .... this video made the trip for me.⚘
Appreciate the tour. You do a fantastic job! I’ve never really wanted to visit the Colosseum because of the horror and death of humans and animals which is its history. However, it is a stark reminder that still stands, reminding us of humanity’s vulgar atrocities. If we don’t know history, we are doomed to repeat it. Felt like I was there and now I don’t have to physically go there. Thank you for taking us along! Blessings New sub
I was annoyed at first with the tourists...but they give a fantastic perspective to the absolute gigantic size of this beautiful structure. I hope to visit here one day but if I can't , I can see this on youtube. Thanks for posting.
Hard for me to comprehend how men 2000 years ago with basic tools could have collect, cut, place all this titan amount of stones and bricks in 10 years only!!!! Amazing!
They had some pretty advanced cement. Which honestly I think they used better cement than we use today. Look at modern roads. No way modern cement would stand 2,000 years.
Brilliant I went there about 20 years ago I didn’t see much as my friend wouldn’t stop talking! & I promised myself I would return minus my friend... it’s such a brilliant video I have no need to go there now! .. no entrance fee ..no queuing ..no sun burn .. heaven , all in your own front room no queueing for a cup of tea or packet of crisps .. love it thank you 🙏 🏴
Hi Pamela, I'm glad you enjoyed it and I do hope you get to go back sometime. :) Right now though they only let in small groups at a time. I went there a month ago. It was kind of nice to see the Colosseum empty but we weren't allowed to wander around and the tour guide kept making sure we were always in the group. Anyway, I will be posting up a new video here soon of the Colosseum, this time with narration I hope. Thanks for watching!
Excellent tour and captures the Colosseum very well. Visited here ten years ago and it was much less crowded then than here. Hope to visit Rome again some day.
Thank you for taking the Video and presenting it to us freely. It is a mammoth job to do the restoration for the complex ( I do not think they will ever do it ). Thanks once again, We thoroughly enjoyed it.
What an amazing video! Thanks for the detailed tour of the colosseum! 👍 I hope I can visit in person some day. 😊. I can almost feel an overlap of energies, ancient and modern. The modern has more open gentle vibe of freedom. God be thanked for the modern age!
I just wanted to say thank you so very much for sharing this video with us all , it's unlikely that I'll ever get to Europe and see great places of antiquity, this video allowed me to really get a good view of what the Colosseum was like,,,,,,,, btw ,,,,,,,, I bet you're feet were tired after the walk around there ,,,,,,,, anyway,,,,,,,,,, I sincerely appreciate this video and the care that was given in making it , nicely done .👍
Muchísimas gracias. It was much better than the small tour I did when I went there in 2016. I didn't pay the extra money to go to the bottom. Very nice video. Thank you so much. 😊
I have always wanted to go to Italy. Even as a small child. I am now 70 and next year Im going. I like to study and have an idea of what Im going to see and who these people were, what were their accomplishments, and know my way around. These walking tours have done that for me. Im getting my bearings about the city of Rome. Still dont know where I will stay yet.
Hi Linda, that is great to hear. I hope you enjoy your trip. If you need any help making a decision about where to stay just let me know.....but I would recommend a place near a metro stop....and the most central metro stop is at the Spanish Steps.
@@ProWalks I sure will. I enjoyed the Pompeii prowalk and trying to catch your image in the reflection of the glass. That was fun. You were the walking camera with a baseball hat. Nice to see you are real and have a smiling face.
An excellent video about one of the most horrific places in human history. The feeling one gets in the Hypogeum is chilly; just fathom the number of souls preparing to be perished there.
This is great, one thing you cannot appreciate from pictures unless you have been there is the huge size, no wonder they had to fill the arena up with exotic beasts and spectacle, would have been hard to see from the top tiers.
HI Dixie, Thanks. I'm glad you're enjoying the videos. I'll be uploading my 15 mile walk of Rome this evening and this weekend I am heading to Matera, Italy.
Thank you for sharing this I don't think I'll ever have the pleasure to go here thanks to you at least I can see what its like inside this Mighty Colosseum.
It is hard to imagine building a construction like the Colosseum without modern machinery especially trucks to transport all the materials and equipment , a humongous project even today .
Excellent picturisation but cant imagine how it existed while it was functional, but the movie Gladiator gave rough picture, or otherwise its only ruins of the past. Thanks to the film maker, when i visted this place in the year 2006, due to time constraints i couldn't go in and see, now my wish got fulfilled. Thank you once again.
Hey thanks. I filmed a another Colosseum walk in 2020 when their were no tourists and the Colosseum was empty. They wouldn't let you wander around on your own though so my "tour" is not very complete. I still might post it up. Glad you enjoyed this one. Thanks for watching.
These video's are fantastic. Also, 16:30 those steps are no joke. We went as high as they would let us go when I was there, and I had to stop for a breather.
And I thought they were putting their phones to good use as cameras! I saw very few with it stuck to their ears! Oh, maybe they were texting...too bad they missed the point.
Actually there never was a ‘thumb down’ action from the judges but rather making the thumb run across the throat indicating kill. The word ‘jugular’ originated from this.
Merci à vous de m'avoir fait visité le Colisée étant donné que je ne le verrai jamais, de très beaux plans, quel travail colossale, nous ne sommes vraiment rien à coté de ces gens là qui savaient travaillés, encore merci
Whoa that has certainly saved me the hasle of flying over to Rome with all the associated UK airport grief! I've saved the cost of a flight, rip of hotel prices and didn't have to join an endless queue to get an overpriced entrance ticket. I've now had a hour walk around the Colosseum from the comfort of my armchair for free!! More clips like this please, I'll save a fortune 😀
Hey William, glad you enjoyed it. I filmed the Colosseum back in 2020 again when it was completely empty. It was a guided tour so I wasn't able to roam around like I wanted and I meant to go back and finish filming but never did. Anyway, I might post up what I have anyway. It is pretty cool to see it empty.
Amazing!! Didn’t realise how big it is inside..Both by sisters have been there (a bit jealous) sooo may people visiting on that day too! Crazy. I wonder if it’s like this all year round. Thanks for shareing 😊🙏🏻
Hey tanb8, yeah Rome barely has an "off" season. If it is a nice day then it is crowded. The Colosseum video was taken at the end of September. Glad you liked it!
Over the top tour! Wow, tragic playground for the ancient Romans. You made me feel as though I was really there--true virtual reality at its best. Thank you!
My mother’s family came from Italy. I doubt I’ll ever be able to go. Your videos are fantastic. I wonder what my great grandmother used to look like and what they did for work.
If tourists want to avoid the crowds, go in late winter. You'll have a much nicer feel for the place. Then again, it was a thriving city, so the hustle and bustle of tourists sort of make that part more realistic.
Excellent video,you have no idea how much I love your walk videos,I could never have imagined seeing all the 4 levels of the colosseum,I just subscribed your channel,so relaxing,your effoert are much appreciated.
Hey Dave, I'm glad you're enjoying the videos! It has been fun making these videos and giving people access to something they might not ever see. The weather here has been pretty dark and dreary for the last several weeks so I haven't gone out on any walks lately. I should be going up to Rome this weekend though to do some more walking.
ProWalks hope the weather gets better,can't wait to see more videos,it's become a ritual for me ,after coming from work I make myself some dinner and a cup of tea and the the watch the videos while I eat,sure is a great way to relax after a long day of work,can you make a video of small towns or places away from the tourist crowds,will much appreciate it.
Great camera work, new sub here, I wanna see where else you’ve been, I was lucky to be in Rome in 2017, brought back great memories, we had fine weather too🇮🇪😊

BRAVO BRAVO ❤😍❤😍 LOVE FROM SWEDEN!!!!!! AMAZING VIDEO
@Kepano 808HI He has the ability to cut and splice so we really dont know how much editing he has done. I appreciate the consistent pace that these walks are done. No interaction with others is fine with me. That would be waste of my time as a viewer. Thanx for walking tours. I have watched many of them. Spent many hours taking these walks.
I've seen the collesium on TV and it just does not do justice to the massive size of this complex. Your camera view makes one appreciate even more that this place was built by hand and without modern machines. Absolutely incredible.
Hey guys, I came to your videos because my mom who cant travel to these places loves to watch them and really enjoys them. She doesnt speak english so I was thinking that if you ever want to in translate the english texts to spanish I can do it as a support for your channel,. at least if you could add them as closed captions for other viewers that might not understand them, maybe we could collaborate somehow, not looking for money nor anything else, just helping echoter out. Best wishes and great channel!
Really I felt that I was physically present at each ot the sites and monuments you have shown us. Thank you sincerely.
when you walk through em its a completely different feeling trust me. I live there and anytime I see them its something magical
What I really these walking tours is that he's camera is above the height of the humans so we could really see everything.

Maybe they should give the stones back for a re-fit into the Colosseum? Otherwise, it becomes a theft.
R S, Eh, it happens a lot in history
@@rswow how can you imagine this bullshit pal, with all due respect I think it is obvious that to take even a piece of the colosseum in st peter you should destroy the church and on the top of that these pieces are not how you think, they have been re worked and reused, they are not just stones on the wall

@@Seemsayin supports Man U says it all
@@jonnyrobcr What? I have no idea what that means. Can you convert that to a sentence, so that dingalings, like myself, can understand?
I still remember walking out that very metro station and seeing the Colosseum appear in my face for the very first time. So grand and majestic

I was last in the colosseum in 1971. I as 13 years old. So much has changed! Thank you for the tour!
Amazing how it still stands today.And amazing how it was built thousands of years ago.Rome was a super power
I’ve seen the Colosseum from the outside but never been inside. Thanks to you I can join other tourists and have a proper look. ❤️
Thank you so much for allowing me to see this magnificent building. I can't imagine the suffering of human beings and animals..
Hey, you are very welcome. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Sorry you weren't able to go in while you are there. I would like to go back here soon and film it again while it is all empty. Thanks for watching Robert.

Thanks for putting these videos up. Thank you for taking the time to produce the video. Great work, loved it.
Thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I am working on getting at least one video posted every week so I hope you enjoy those as well.
Muchísimas gracias. It was much better than the small tour I did when I went there in 2016. I didn't pay the extra money to go to the bottom. Very nice video. Thank you so much. 😊
Thank you for your excellent video,,.I can feel Im with the group touring the colosseum...Great work of the Romans.The grandeur that was Rome.
Thanks for the tour.That was absolutely amazing 💙☺️
Enjoyed watching this video to the fullest.
I have always wanted to go to Italy. Even as a small child. I am now 70 and next year Im going. I like to study and have an idea of what Im going to see and who these people were, what were their accomplishments, and know my way around. These walking tours have done that for me. Im getting my bearings about the city of Rome. Still dont know where I will stay yet.
Hi Linda, that is great to hear. I hope you enjoy your trip. If you need any help making a decision about where to stay just let me know.....but I would recommend a place near a metro stop....and the most central metro stop is at the Spanish Steps.
@@ProWalks I sure will. I enjoyed the Pompeii prowalk and trying to catch your image in the reflection of the glass. That was fun. You were the walking camera with a baseball hat. Nice to see you are real and have a smiling face.
Thank you so much for the spoilers. As a Filipino, there is a very small chance that I will be here someday.
Its an amazing video with full coverage of COLOSSEUM of ROME.
Thank you !!!this is an actual walking tour!!! I was looking something like this!!
An excellent video about one of the most horrific places in human history. The feeling one gets in the Hypogeum is chilly; just fathom the number of souls preparing to be perished there.
Awesome engineering! Sadly, I may not be able to see it soon or ever in person. Hence, this is the best alternative. Thank you so much !
Glad you enjoyed it! I hope you can make it there someday!
Thanks for giving me this tour of this magnificent building 👍 this is the only way to visit it on April 2020 😷 greetings from New Jersey US .
This is great, one thing you cannot appreciate from pictures unless you have been there is the huge size, no wonder they had to fill the arena up with exotic beasts and spectacle, would have been hard to see from the top tiers.
Excellent virtual tour, thanks a lot for give us this gift!!
Amazing, thanks for filming this walk!
Went there in Oct 2020, this is a fantastic video, thanks to whoever filmed it.
I too love your videos. I'll never be able to afford to go to all these wonder places and your videos are wonderful. Thank you.
HI Dixie, Thanks. I'm glad you're enjoying the videos. I'll be uploading my 15 mile walk of Rome this evening and this weekend I am heading to Matera, Italy.
Thank you for sharing this I don't think I'll ever have the pleasure to go here thanks to you at least I can see what its like inside this Mighty Colosseum.
thank you so much for making this... GBU
Thank you SO much for posting that. I watched the whole thing full screen. Just amazing.
Parece que hay también unos 50.000 turistas viendo el Colosseo al mismo tiempo, es enorme , e impresionante, thank you
One of the greatest videos on TH-cam without a doubt
Never been there myself, now I virtually have, thanks!
Wonderful thank you totally brought my memories from over twenty years visiting
It is hard to imagine building a construction like the Colosseum without modern machinery especially trucks to transport all the materials and equipment , a humongous project even today .
... Or blueprints. Who was the foreman? It's the planning and how they coordinated it all that seems just as amazing. Crazy stuff.
Actually, we know now they had all sort of amazing machines to help them.
Excellent picturisation but cant imagine how it existed while it was functional, but the movie Gladiator gave rough picture, or otherwise its only ruins of the past. Thanks to the film maker, when i visted this place in the year 2006, due to time constraints i couldn't go in and see, now my wish got fulfilled. Thank you once again.
Enjoyed the tour very much. Thank you. An amazing place
Hey, thanks for watching! I hope you were able to see something you haven't seen before.
Another gem. Thank you. Feel like Im there again.
learned more from this video than my entire socials class
This is the best video I have seen so far on the colosseum in Rome
Hey thanks. I filmed a another Colosseum walk in 2020 when their were no tourists and the Colosseum was empty. They wouldn't let you wander around on your own though so my "tour" is not very complete. I still might post it up. Glad you enjoyed this one. Thanks for watching.
These video's are fantastic. Also, 16:30 those steps are no joke. We went as high as they would let us go when I was there, and I had to stop for a breather.
I had no idea on how large this was until now. Great video!
Caesar would of given all those people on their phones the "thumb down".
And I thought they were putting their phones to good use as cameras! I saw very few with it stuck to their ears! Oh, maybe they were texting...too bad they missed the point.
thumb up was the tradition
Actually there never was a ‘thumb down’ action from the judges but rather making the thumb run across the throat indicating kill. The word ‘jugular’ originated from this.
He would have slicked off their thumbs!

Merci à vous de m'avoir fait visité le Colisée étant donné que je ne le verrai jamais, de très beaux plans, quel travail colossale, nous ne sommes vraiment rien à coté de ces gens là qui savaient travaillés, encore merci
Great walk. Beautiful place to visit and walk.
Whoa that has certainly saved me the hasle of flying over to Rome with all the associated UK airport grief! I've saved the cost of a flight, rip of hotel prices and didn't have to join an endless queue to get an overpriced entrance ticket. I've now had a hour walk around the Colosseum from the comfort of my armchair for free!! More clips like this please, I'll save a fortune 😀
Hey William, glad you enjoyed it. I filmed the Colosseum back in 2020 again when it was completely empty. It was a guided tour so I wasn't able to roam around like I wanted and I meant to go back and finish filming but never did. Anyway, I might post up what I have anyway. It is pretty cool to see it empty.
Adoro seus vídeos parabéns. A ITÁLIA me fascina todos os lugares que você nos mostra é contagiante!
Absolutely brilliant. Thank you for this tour. You have a new subscriber. Fantastic tour.
Amazing!! Didn’t realise how big it is inside..Both by sisters have been there (a bit jealous) sooo may people visiting on that day too! Crazy. I wonder if it’s like this all year round. Thanks for shareing 😊🙏🏻
Hey tanb8, yeah Rome barely has an "off" season. If it is a nice day then it is crowded. The Colosseum video was taken at the end of September. Glad you liked it!
Hasn't changed much since 1962... 😀 Excellent tour. Thanks.
Bellissimo video !!! Belle anche le riprese nei sotterranei !!!!!
Thank you for the video. As s disabled person I would have never been able to walk all of that. Thank you for that tour. It was enjoyable.
Over the top tour! Wow, tragic playground for the ancient Romans. You made me feel as though I was really there--true virtual reality at its best. Thank you!
My mother’s family came from Italy. I doubt I’ll ever be able to go. Your videos are fantastic. I wonder what my great grandmother used to look like and what they did for work.
Great video, I can only imagine what the Coliseum was like in it's original state.
Grazie per queste bellissime immagini un prezioso regalo. .Roma sempre nel ❤. .
If tourists want to avoid the crowds, go in late winter. You'll have a much nicer feel for the place. Then again, it was a thriving city, so the hustle and bustle of tourists sort of make that part more realistic.
Excellent video,you have no idea how much I love your walk videos,I could never have imagined seeing all the 4 levels of the colosseum,I just subscribed your channel,so relaxing,your effoert are much appreciated.
Hey Dave, I'm glad you're enjoying the videos! It has been fun making these videos and giving people access to something they might not ever see. The weather here has been pretty dark and dreary for the last several weeks so I haven't gone out on any walks lately. I should be going up to Rome this weekend though to do some more walking.
ProWalks hope the weather gets better,can't wait to see more videos,it's become a ritual for me ,after coming from work I make myself some dinner and a cup of tea and the the watch the videos while I eat,sure is a great way to relax after a long day of work,can you make a video of small towns or places away from the tourist crowds,will much appreciate it.
Great camera work, new sub here, I wanna see where else you’ve been, I was lucky to be in Rome in 2017, brought back great memories, we had fine weather too🇮🇪😊
AND THAT'S HOW A TOUR IS DONE PEOPLE!!!!
*Absolutely Divine Isaac!* - *I often wonder if we are looking at ancient ruins, what did the ancients view as ancient?* 🙏🖤🙏
Yeah, kind of crazy to think about .
