#Kourion #Ancient #Theatre #景點介紹

One of the main attractions of the ruins of Kourion is, the large and very impressive amphitheatre from the 2nd century BC.

Highlights:

• A completely restored Greco-Roman theatre where musical and theatrical performances take place today

• Breathtaking views of the Mediterranean in an impressive and magical ancient setting

Look Out For:

• The whole archaeological area of Kourion attracts lots of visitors, so it is recommended to visit early in the morning or later in the afternoon if you wish to avoid the crowds

• Wear comfortable shoes and have a bottle of water with you if visiting in the summer months, as the site is rather large and there is some walking and climbing involved

• You will need about two hours if you wish to visit the entire complex

• Check out the calendar of events to attend one of the many cultural performances that take place at Kourion theatre. Watching a Shakespeare's play or listening to a classical music concert on such a venue is an experience not to be
