Amphitheatres

Amphitheatres are large, oval or circular outdoor structures with tiered seating designed for public events such as performances, sports, or gladiatorial contests. Originating in ancient Greece and Rome, they feature a central arena where the main activity occurs, surrounded by ascending rows of seats that allow spectators to have a clear view from any angle. These venues showcase advanced engineering and acoustics, enabling large audiences to experience events simultaneously. Modern amphitheatres are used for concerts and cultural gatherings, continuing their legacy as communal spaces for entertainment and assembly.
