    • Abstract:
      Airbnb offered a unique 'gladiator experience' in Rome for those interested in stepping into the arena like ancient combatants. Participants could descend into the Colosseum's underground chambers, don gladiator attire, learn combat moves, and face off against fellow warriors. This initiative is part of Airbnb's efforts to revitalize heritage tourism, including supporting the restoration of the Colosseum's heritage. Additionally, Parma is known for Culatello, a cold cut similar to prosciutto, and Barilla, a renowned pasta manufacturer with its headquarters in the city. [Extracted from the article]
