Arles Amphitheatre, Roman amphitheatre in Arles, France.
The amphitheatre features 60 arches across two levels with Doric columns on the ground floor and Corinthian columns on the upper level.
Constructed in 90 AD during the reign of Tiberius Caesar Augustus, the amphitheatre served as a fortified settlement with 200 houses during medieval times.
The arena continues its entertainment legacy by hosting bullfighting events, theatrical performances, and concerts throughout the summer season.
The amphitheatre opens from 9:00 to 19:00 between May and September, with reduced hours during winter months and closure on major holidays.
The structure measures 136 meters in length and 107 meters in width, containing 33 rows of seats that accommodated 20,000 spectators in Roman times.
