The Ancient City Beneath the Acropolis Museum in Athens...Greece ...

The Acropolis Museum is a modern, state of the art facility, with its newest gallery space taking you down into the streets of Early Byzantine Athens, built over the remains of an ancient Athenian neighbourhood dating back to 4000 years BC. The remains of this neighbourhood, uncovered during the excavations to lay the foundation for the Acropolis Museum, show a place that was teeming with life for centuries. Archaeologists, as they peeled back the earth, exposed a honeycomb of walls, streets, alleys, houses, baths and workshops, some as far down as five meters or more below present ground level.

Colosseum and the great nymphaeum of Claudium, 360 panorama.

Today it is a panoramic view of a street just next to the Colosseum. The back facade of the platform of the temple of Divine Claudius faced the street, and it was decorated with a huge nymphaeum, richly embellished with marbles and statues. Opposite to it you can see the Ludus Gallicus buildings. At one end of the street you see the Amphitheater, and at the other, the arches of Aqua Claudia branch, which crossed Caelian hill and reached the Palatine hill and its palaces.
