Nimes
This is the inside of the Arena of Nimes, in Nimes, France. While visiting, I could imagine what it would be like to witness one of the two bullfights held here annually: the sounds of a cheering audience, the bullfighters whistling at the bull, the grunting of the bull, and the vibrant colors of the pageantry.

Arena of Nimes
This is an image of a hallway which wraps around the inside perimeter of the Arena of Nimes in Nimes, France. Around 70 AD, the Arena of Nimes was built. In 1863, it was then renovated to serve as a bullring for the two bullfights they hold annually. In addition to bullfights, the arena also serves as a place for other public events.
