It is difficult to imagine that all of this was under the modern day city street. It has become almost impossible for the city to do any construction digging without another marvelous find such as this. More

Millions have been spent on the site, yet it is closed after 3 P.M. What could be a center of early evening activity is now isolated. More

Go to Aristotelous Square, through the park and you will see this amazing site. You can see streets, Music Academy, cryptoporticus, mosaics... Eventhough site was close for visitors (holidays) you can approach the Agora and see it from the side streets. Easy to find, real pleasure to see... More
