Incontra la tua guida locale certificata all'ombra del Palazzo Municipale che delimita il fronte meridionale della piazza presso la quale sorge il monumento più importante della città, l'Arena. Seguila per raggiungere la parte settentrionale della piazza, dove, all'ombra dei Giardini della Bra, potrai osservare attentamente la conformazione dell'anfiteatro e scoprire già interessantissimi dettagli come la dimensione originaria, il suo rapporto con l'abitato e la complessa articolazione delle sue strutture d'accesso. Quindi muoverai alla volta dell'"ala", alla cui ombra potrai individuare altri inaspettati dettagli. Entrerai quindi nell'anfiteatro e ne percorrerai corridoi e arcovoli per esplorare l'ingegnosa struttura capace di collegare le porte esterne con i "vomitoria" interni. Scoprirai i luoghi frequentati dai gladiatori e quelli usati per alloggiare le fiere. Potrai forse, poi, dimenticare di accedere all'"arena" come avrebbe fatto un gladiatore? E prendere posto nella cavea come ancora fanno gli spettatori? Dopo aver ascoltato gli innumerevoli aneddoti legati al mondo dei giochi gladiatori, terminerai il nostro tour nella parte più nascosta e suggestiva di tutto l'anfiteatro. E li, inizierà il tuo tempo libero, perché tu possa rimanere in questo luogo a dir poco straordinario tanto a lungo quanto desidererai.
