El Jem, Tunisia

Entering El Jem really makes you step back in time! Here are some shots to show the extent of the masonry and workmanship in Roman times!

The amphitheatre at El Jem, Tunisia

More Roman remains - this time we wandered around El Jem in Tunisia, the amphitheatre where part of the film "Gladiator" was filmed. These are taken through archways leading to the seating areas and down underground where the gladiators and lions would wait their turn - it was late afternoon so the light was perfect for taking photographs!
