Ancient Greek theatre

Ancient Greek theatre

This staggering Greek theatre is located in the Neapolis Archaeological Park, hidden among glorious green trees and lots of natural vegetation. It was built around 470 BC and could hold up to 15,000 spectators! Take a seat on the ancient rock and imagine the performances that were once shown here. In the summer months, it often plays host to open-air music concerts and plays.
