An ancient theatre well preserved and fully functional. During the spring and early summer I'd suggest to buy tickets for a concert or other ( theatrical, ballet or opera ) performances. A one time experience http://odysseus.culture.gr/h/2/eh251.jsp?obj_id=6622

Φαγητό

The taste of food is distinctive to every one of us. I try to suggest places that are commonly accepted for their quality, are easy to reach ( by metro, tram or bus ) and are not very expensive. If you need very expensive restaurants then you could ask me.
It's at the centre of the city, great food ( that is always questionable though ) and great service.
