Small castle, can only be visited during public events, the performances are always worth a visit.
Meine Meinung (3 years ago)
The castle may have been quite nice in the 17th century, but unfortunately I misplaced my time machine. Nowadays it's just rubbish, even with all the romantic feelings, if you rate something like this with 5☆, you probably also rate an ancient plum toilet with 5☆ ?‍♂️ 3☆ is already max. If you found my recession helpful or you liked it, please give me ?

Argos Theater

The ancient Argos Theater was built in 320 BC. and is located in Argos, Greece against Larissa Hill. Nearby from this site is Agora, Roman Odeon, and the Baths of Argos. The theater is one of the largest architectural developments in Greece and was renovated in ca 120 AD.

The Hellenistic theater at Argos is cut into the hillside of the Larisa, with 90 steps up a steep incline, forming a narrow rectilinear cavea. Among the largest theaters in Greece, it held about 20,000 spectators and is divided by two landings into three horizontal sections. Staircases further divide the cavea into four cunei, corresponding to the tribes of Argos A high wall was erected to prevent unauthorized access into the theatron and may have helped the acoustics, but it is said the sound quality is still very good today.

Around 120 CE, both theaters were renovated in the Roman style.
