The Great Theatre of Epidaurus

An ancient Greek theater built in the third century.

Reviewed By Jellybellydancer - Burscough, United Kingdom

The Peloponnese is not short of magnificent ancient sites and the Theatre of Epidavros is up there with the best of them. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is one of the best preserved ancient structures in existence and is a 'must-do' if you are in this part of the world. The scale of the amphitheatre, which seat up to 14,000 people, is awe-inspiring and it's perfectly true that you can hear a coin drop on the stage from the highest seat. We were treated to an impromptu performance by another visitor, obviously keen to test out this claim about the acoustics, and the applause from the back of the theatre resonated as clearly as that from the front. It is definitely worth climbing up to the top if you can, the steps are a little uneven in places but perfectly manageable. The views from the top are amazing.

Delphi

Reviewed By Charles_and_Susan - Nottingham, United Kingdom

We were shown around by a local guide as part of our Greece tour. Although you'd be impressed by what you saw if you went by yourself I think we got more out of it with a guide - or maybe take a good guide book, there's so much to see and understand at this site. If you're feeling energetic there's a walk right up to the stadium at the top, it is worth it.

Panathenaic Stadium

The Old Olympic Stadium in Athens Greece, built of granite in late 19th century on the site of ancient Athens from the 4th Century; hosted the first modern games in1896.

Reviewed By Steve_and_Zoe2013 - Codsall, United Kingdom

If you’re in Athens and have an hour or two to spare we would highly recommend this site. It is within moderate walking distance or couple of bus stops from the city centre and a very peaceful place to wander round, soak in some Olympic history and even run round the track or stand atop the podium if you like. The audio tour included and both informative and well planned, guiding you round the stadium at a leisurely pace and to the Olympic museum that includes a flame from every olympics! Views are amazing and we enjoyed our visit very much.
