Catania theater

This ancient amphitheater was home to houses until the 30's, and the perimeter walls were homes until the second half of the 20th century. The building on the right still has homes in it (it still had clothes hanging to dry). The stage was flooded at some point for water choreography. This is a great example of people living in their history, setting these ruins aside seems a very modern action.
