【南法。阿爾勒 Arles。阿爾勒競技場 Arènes d'Arles】

才走過城門不久

還在慢慢看沿街美麗的小店

突然巨大的競技場就出現在眼前

心裏面的強烈震動

是後來到羅馬競技場也沒有的感覺

一步一步登上瞭望臺

看到了小鎮

看到了大河

看到了晴朗的天空

看到了偶像居住過的地方

覺得心裏面深處的一些難過的經歷被忘掉了

一些怨念被原諒了

如果真要說旅行有什麼意義

大概就是這種對往事的釋放/看開/放下的時刻

The Arles Amphitheatre (French: Arènes d'Arles) is a Roman amphitheatre in the southern French town of Arles. This two-tiered Roman amphitheatre is probably the most prominent tourist attraction in the city of Arles, which thrived in Roman times. The pronounced towers jutting out from the top are medieval add-ons.

Built in 90 AD, the amphitheatre was capable of seating over 20,000 spectators, and was built to provide entertainment in the form of chariot races and bloody hand-to-hand battles. Today, it draws large crowds forbullfighting during the Feria d'Arles^[1] as well as plays and concerts in summer.
