Chester Roman Amphitheatre

Nice bit of history. No tickets required, tour guides (and tours) are available. Chester needs a full day, or two, to explore. Amphitheatre is just a sliver of the pie.

Not much to look at, so requires some imagination, but fascinating none the less to think of it in its pomp.

Amazing bit of history, in the middle of Chester. Walk down the steps and find yourself in the middle of the theatre ready for combate. Half the old Roman wall and half a reconstruction in a picture. Even thou many of the stones were taken to build after the Romans left, the shape maintain and the road today gets it shape from it. Worth the walk to see

Exciting to see remains of a Roman amphitheater that was built in 80AD! Odd to know it would hold 7,000 people. There isn't much at the site and it only takes a few minutes to see it all. Don't expect a museum. I think some might be disappointed, but I was not. I appreciated it. The Roman gardens are also just 2 minutes away, too.

Beautiful old ruins. The city of Chester has lot's of quirky shop's and great eateries. This is close to the river and you can walk along the wall.
