Epidaurus Ancient Theatre

The Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus, built in the 4th century BC, is the finest and best-preserved ancient Greek theatre in existence, famed above all for its extraordinary acoustics — a pin dropped on stage can be heard in the upper tiers 55 rows away. Set in a green valley of cypress and olive trees in the Peloponnese, it still stages performances of ancient drama each summer during the Epidaurus Festival. The surrounding Sanctuary of Asclepius is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Sightseeing

Delphi Archaeological Site

Delphi was ancient Greece's most sacred sanctuary, home of the Oracle whose prophetic pronouncements shaped the fate of Greek city-states and Persian kings for a millennium. Perched dramatically on the slopes of Mount Parnassus above the Gulf of Corinth, its ruined temples, treasury buildings, theatre, and stadium are among the most atmospherically sited ancient monuments in Europe. The Delphi Archaeological Museum houses an exceptional collection of Bronze Age and Classical sculptures.
