just outside the collossuem so dont think it gets noticed very often! beautiful detail on the stone, nothing special thou.

Roman architecture is really impressive, and this Arch is no exception. It lives in the shadow of the Colosseum. The good thing, however, is that you don't have much of a detour if you are planning to visit the Colosseum.

Another testimony of the appreciation that Rome had for Dacians. The statues on frontispiece (noble dacians) seems to protect the Arch for the passage of time.

The Arch of Constantine is a triumphal arch in Rome situated between the Colosseum and the Palatine Hill. It was erected by the Roman Senate to commemorate Constantine I's victory over Maxentius at the Battle of Milvian Bridge on October 28, 312.

Constantine's Arch is beautiful, but why it has to be kept behind an eight foot high cage is beyond me. You can't walk through it, can't get particularly close, and all photos of it have to cut off the lower half. This, and the 'treatment' the local authorities are giving the Colosseum, is infuriating.

The arch is almost ignored and forgotten because of the Colosseum on its left that towers over it magnificently however the arch is one of the last remaining in Rome and definitely deserves some attention and at least a picture next to it. If you are visited the Colosseum or Roman Forum (which both exit next to the Arch) then... More

Such an impressive sight to behold, and right next to the colosseum! The giant barriers round the bottom ruin it slightly but of course, these things need to be preserved!

This arch is one of the very few remaining standing in Rome and is even one of the rarer triple archs left standing. Tip: in spite of the arch's history, admire it while grabbing a panini from a nearby food cart, snap a few pictures and continue to the Colosseum or Roman Forums.

Just a short distance from the Colosseum, this arch could easily be missed. With everything in Rome, a city has built up around these historic places.
