,Italiё
Die kolosseum (Rome)
Ligging
In Rome, die hoofstad van Italiё
Beskrywing • Hierdie antieke gebou is in die middel van Rome, net oos van
die Romeinse Forum. Meeste van die geboue van antieke
Rome wat oorleef het is daar
• Dit was die grootste Colosseum wat ooit in die Romeinse Ryk
gebou is
• Die Colosseum het agt jaar geneem om te bou
• Teen die tyd dat dit gebou is, was die Romeinse Ryk op sy
hoogtepunt. Die keisers wou 'n arena gehad het waarin groot
gebeure gehou kan word
• Dit was in staat om 50 000 sitplekke vir toeskouers te huisves
wat gekom het om wedstryde tussen gladiators te kyk en ander
groot openbare gebeure te sien
• Ongeveer 'n half miljoen mense en 'n miljoen wilde diere het
gesterf tydens hierdie gebeure
Hoekom is dit ‘n ikoon? Die Colosseum het met Rome en die glorie wat die Romeinse ryk was,
verbind geword. Dit is ook 'n indrukwekkende voorbeeld van antieke
Romeinse ingenieurswese en argitektuur.

, Die Leunende Toring van Pisa (Piazza del Uomo)
Ligging
In die stad van Pisa, Italiё
Beskrywing • Die leunende toring van Pisa is die kloktoring van Pisa se
katedraal
• Die toring was bedoel om reguit te staan maar het begin leun
kort na dit gebou is in begin 1173. Die gebou is vir 100 jaar
gestaak
• Dit het nog 100 jaar geneem om voltooi te word, met die laaste
verdieping wat in 1350 gebou is, en die klokke wat 200 jaar
later bygevoeg is
• Die toring is 56,7m hoog en het tot 1990 teen 5,5 grade van ‘n
vertikale posisie gekantel
• Besoekers kan na bo klim deur 294 stappe te klim
• Die toring is in 1990 gesluit toe baie werk gedoen is om die
gebou te stabiliseer
• Die toring is weer in 2001 geopen en nou word slegs 30
besoekers op 'n slag elke 40min in die toring toegelaat. Die
leun is nou 3,99 grade van die vertikale posisie
Hoekom is dit ‘n ikoon? Daar is geen ander bekende gebou in die wêreld wat gekantel soos die
toring van Pisa nie. Dit is die rede waarom dit die Leunende Toring van
Pisa genoem is. Daardie kantel maak dit werklik uniek, veral omdat dit
vir byna 900 jaar geleun het sonder om om te val.
