The most beautiful and best preserved theatre in Greece! “See” and feel your voice vibrate the air and reach to the 55th row of seats, the last one of the upper diazoma.

Climb to the top and listen to cicadas during the day. Catch a show if you can get tickets at night. Try to be the last to leave so you can catch a glimpse of the empty theatre in the moonlight.

The Theatre ,the Temples of Artemis and Asclepios,the Tholos,the Enkoimeterion, and the Propylaea. Example of Hellenic architectural ensemble of the 4th century BC. A World Heritage Monument of Unesco. Read more

The 999 steps are well worth the effort as the citadel itself is a wonderful place to explore and the views from the top are incredible. There are good toilets but there was nowhere to get a drink. - angel light photography
