Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
The Arch of Constantine was built in 315 to commemorate Constantine the Great defeating Emperor Maxenti to unify the Roman Empire. There were a total of 21 triumphal arches in ancient Rome, but today there are only three remaining in the city of Rome. The Arc de Triomphe of Constantine is one of them, and the other two are located in the Roman Forum. Overview of the Arc de Triomphe Located on the west side of the Colosseum, the Arc de Triomphe of Constantine is 25.7 meters long, 7.4 meters wide, and 21 meters high. It has 3 arches. But still in the wind and rain, witnessing the glory of Rome together with the Colosseum. Today, the Arc de Triomphe has become a must-see attraction for tourists visiting Rome. Arc de Triomphe relief panels The eight relief panels above the Arc de Triomphe were dismantled from the monument to Emperor Aurelius at that time, and the originals are now kept in the Museum of the Roman Capital. The main content is the life performance of successive emperors, such as Antony, Hadrian and so on. Only the circular reliefs above the two small arches depict scenes of this war. Today and the eve of the Arc de Triomphe, Napoleon came to Rome, saw this Arc de Triomphe, and greatly appreciated it, and then built the Arc de Triomphe in Paris based on it. Therefore, although the Arc de Triomphe of Constantine is the later built of the three triumphal arches in Rome, the shadow of early Roman art can still be seen, and it is well preserved and worth a visit.

The Arc de Triomphe of Constantine was named after the emperor of the Roman Empire, Constantine the Great was a legendary emperor in Roman history, and he unified the whole of Rome during his reign. Constantine the Arc de Triomphe of Constantine was Constantine the Great in victory over his strong opponent, Maxson The arch was built after the unification of western Rome.

The second floor of the Colosseum offers a view of the Arc de Triomphe of Constantine. Although not as grand as the Arc de Triomphe of Paris, the fact is that Napoleon built the Arc de Triomphe of Paris after watching it.
Just next to the colosseum. Can head over after you explore colosseum . Should be on the way and thats bout it! Still recommend to visit since is just beside colosseum .
Roman Empire and Roman ruins but nothing is like Arch of Constantine, which is in my opinion second only to Colosseum.
The first time I saw the Arc de Triomphe, it was inadvertently. Everyone knows the gladiators and the Colosseum in Rome. They have seen the Colosseum, walked among the ruins of the ancient Roman Square and looked at the ruins. Suddenly, they found this well-preserved and exquisitely carved building. I think the first thing most people see must be the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. Perhaps the latter is inherited or inspired from this vein. Completely stony buildings allow them to survive for thousands of years without being destroyed. It's not easy to see them now. Just as a tourist, I can not understand the words and patterns carved on it, but simply feel that the carving is exquisite and delicate.
Must-see attractions with the group. The cavalry there is very handsome.
