An overgrown Roman city of arches, walls and temples in Essexe.
The real place
Colchester was Camulodunum, the first Roman capital of Britain. The Norman castle in the photo, the largest keep the Normans built, stands on the base of the Roman Temple of Claudius.
Visiting
The castle museum runs tours of the Roman vaults under the keep. Much of the town's Roman wall still circles the centre.
