My choice of big touristy thing for Rome was the Colosseum. I choose a time slot toward the end of the day, hoping for better light and fewer people. I certainly got the light and the crowd did lessen in the final hour. My ticket also gave me access to the Forum and Palantine Hill within 24 hours, so that was my first destination the next morning. I found an entrance on the Palantine Hill side, near the Circus Maximus. Most people seemed to enter on the Forum side, neat the Colosseum. This meant that my exploration of the Palatine Hill was quieter than expected. The top of the Palantine gave an excellent view of the city.
