Over
Korte feiten: Ancient stone steps curve around the natural slope of a rocky hill, hosting performances for over 2,000 years. This open-air venue once held Greek tragedies and comedies in a city that was one of the ancient Mediterranean's cultural hubs.
Hoogtepunten: Spot the perfectly preserved orchestra pit where ancient actors performed amid natural acoustics amplified by the surrounding limestone cliffs. As you walk through, imagine the echoes of Aeschylus and Sophocles playing out under the Sicilian sun.
