Ioannis MantasSeptember 29, 2015Below Acropolis and Parthenon there are 2 theaters. One Ancient Greek and another one from the Roman era. This is the Greek theater. Very well preserved if you think that it's nearly 2500 years old.

MuratApril 18, 2016Quite big and very impressive. Tourist free zone, no passing. So well preserved that it can be used even today.

Εδω λαμβανανε μέρος οι θεατρικοι αγώνες την περίοδο των παναθηναιων κάθε χρόνο. Προς τιμήν του θεου Διονύσου το άγαλμα του οποίου υπήρχε στην πρώτη έδρα του κοινού.
