Day 3: ANCIENT THEATER OF EPIDAUR - LYGOURIO
Breakfast and departure for the Theater of Ancient Epidaurus which is in excellent condition and is the best preserved ancient Greek theater inside and outside of Greece. The archaeological site of Epidaurus is mainly known for the famous Ancient Theater which was added much later to the sacred and healing area of ​​Asklepiion and was dedicated to the god who cured diseases, Asklepios. Its capacity was 13,000 spectators and it was also used for the treatment of patients, since it was believed that when the patients attended theater performances this had very good effects on their mental and physical health. The site it was built on helped to keep the theater in excellent condition because it was buried by mounds of dirt over the centuries until it was excavated. We will then depart for the nearby village of Lygourio where we will have free time for lunch, as it is famous for its taverns. Return in the late afternoon to Nafplio.
