This is not the Colosseum in Rome. That one is bigger and not as well preserved. This the Arena in Verona. It is still a working place for events and operas. While I enjoy Rome, I must admit that Verona has almost all of the same features on a smaller, more tourist friendly scale. I love Verona, Italy.
It is full of art and easy to get around. But, do not go to Juliet's House. The balcony is not that old, and it is a made up location. Same holds for Juliet's grave. Juliet was a fictional figure (although possibly based on a real person.) It is crowded and you can spend time better at the museum across from the Arena. It is filled with real objects of interest.
