24 Years Later: Revisiting Gladiator and Italy’s Timeless Charm

A movie returning after 24 years, from 2000 to 2024—definitely worth watching in IMAX. Back in 2000, what were you doing? I was still too young to understand the world. Just a few days ago, I revisited Gladiator in my home theater. I remember back in 2016, during my whirlwind trip to Rome, Italy, I made a special trip to the Colosseum. Italy is truly ideal for independent travel. My last trip there lasted 18 days, and it still felt too short. I’m planning to go again next year. Venice, Cinque Terre, Rome, Milan, Florence, Sicily—each destination deserves a few days to fully explore. What are your impressions of Italy?
