Beautiful Castle of San Giorgio, I was struck by how it has been maintained until today it has remained intact and inside they made us a very special restaurant that I will go to try soon. Today it was all booked, but I will gladly return. I also recommend you to visit the village is very nice and characteristic and then you can taste very good typical things of the area. Stop for a Sunday dedicated to historical and artistic discovery and immersed in nature.

Abbiamo celebrato nella location del feudo di San Giorio il nostro matrimonio questo giugno 2022.è un ambiente molto suggestivo ed i nostri ospiti ne sono stati stregati. Consiglio vivamente sia per la particolarità dell ambiente , che per l empatia che si è creata con i gestori che sono stati molto disponibili e gentili nel consigliarci ,ascoltando ed esaudendo i nostri desideri e contribuendo a dare vita ad un ricevimento perfetto .

Very suggestive place. Inside a restaurant open from Wednesday to Sunday. Very kind and helpful staff. I recommend to go up on foot, leaving the car in the town below.

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.
