The Colosseum in Rome will get some much-needed repairs thanks to the sponsorship of Tod's, an Italian luxury shoe manufacturer, the BBC reports.
The restoration will cost about 25 million euros ($34 million). The iconic gladiator arena is right next to a busy road in a polluted city, and a subway line runs close by. Many stones have shifted and require bracing, and the whole things needs a good wash.
Don't expect to see a dramatic change soon,tod's chaussures,tods loafertods loafertods, though. Restoration won't even begin until the end of 2011 and will take two and a half years to complete. The Colosseum will remain open the entire time,chaussures tod'stodstods shoes,Tods Competition Chaussures, although some parts will almost certainly have to be put off-limits on a temporary basis.
Many of Italy's monuments are in a sad state of disrepair. The problem received international attention last year when several ancient structures collapsed in Pompeii.
