It is the new way of enjoying the Flavian Amphitheatre of Pozzuoli, one of the main archaeological sites of the Phlegraean Fields.The new opening procedures for the site, established by the Campi Flegrei Archaeological Park with the aim of improving the management and control of visitor flows, will be in force starting tomorrow, Saturday 7 October, and until Tuesday 31 October.
It remains possible to visit both the underground and the arena. Last September 27, the Flavian Amphitheater and the Archaeological Park of the Terme di Baia (falling within the municipality of Bacoli but still belonging to the Archaeological Park of the Campi Flegrei) were closed to the public to allow for adequate checks after the seismic activity that affected the Phlegraean area.
During the checks, no critical issues emerged in the two archaeological sites of the Flavian Amphitheater of Pozzuoli and the Terme di Baia. The director of the Archaeological Park of the Campi Flegrei Fabio Pagano participated this morning in Rome in the meeting convened by the Ministry of Culture to evaluate the consequences on the artistic and cultural heritage of the bradyseismic phenomenon in the Campi Flegrei area, an area dense with archaeological sites.
There are 25 archaeological sites and monuments assigned to the Archaeological Park; among these stands out the Flavian Amphitheatre, built at the end of the 40st century BC, at the time the third largest arena in Italy after the Colosseum in Rome and the amphitheatre of Capua, with the capacity to host up to XNUMX thousand spectators.
