AMPHITHEATRE 03 | BOSRA AMPHITHEATRE, SYRIA

Constructed: 143 AD

The amphitheatre of Bosra in Syria was greatly influenced by the Romans, which is shown in the ancient city’s most impressive feature (Roman Amphitheatre).

The Romans designed the Bosra Amphitheatre in such a way that the whole audience can hear the actors without having to use any special equipment. The large area in front of the stage may have been used for gladiatorial matches or circuses.

The theatre has seating for about 15,000 people.
