Odeon of Herodes Atticus

Entrance fee 6 euro
Still active theatre along the base of Greece’s acropolis
Probably my favorite view from the top of the Acropolis, looking out past the Odeon of Herodes Atticus, across the city of Athens and all the way to the port at Piraeus. #athens #ancientarchitecture #structures #whataview
The Odeon of Herodes Atticus is a stone theatre structure located on the southwest slope of the Acropolis of Athens, Greece. The building was completed in 161 AD and then renovated in 1950.
Occupying a slope on the Acropolis hill this theatre could sit up to 6000 spectators. It’s an amazing sight.
