The intricate architectural details showcased in this miniature replica are truly awe-inspiring, offering a glimpse into the grandeur and magnificence of ancient Roman engineering. The amphitheater, dating back to the first century AD, stands as an enduring testament to the advanced craftsmanship and ingenuity of its time.
