Day 6: April 7, 2025
More great visits to archeological sites today. Our local guide, Sophia, took us first to the ancient theater at Epidaurus. We learnt about the construction of the site and tested the outstanding acoustics for which it is famous. Next we visited the even older ancient city of Mycenae, taking our group picture by the iconic Lion's Gate. We also had a look inside the tomb of King Agamemnon. We learnt about the traditional local practice of pottery-making. Our day ended back in Athens where we enjoyed a gyros dinner in the historic Plaka district.
