Casa Romana Kos

Reviewed By simonwilliampizzey - Leicester, United Kingdom

Whenever I visit a new city, island or country within Europe I look to identify if there are any Roman Empire archaeological sites or museums. On this occasion there was fortunately a number of historical locations within the archeological quarter of Kos Town. This site is an excellently preserved example of a Roman villa with excellent murals. There are a number of internal and external ruins, excellent descriptions of the purpose of each room and the types of activities that would have occurred. There are very well preserved pots and utensils as well as statues. Finally there was also a very well preserved garden area in the middle of the villa. This is a very enjoyable location and a must visit for Roman history fans such as myself.

Western Archaeological Zone

Reviewed By JasperG2000 - Surrey, United Kingdom

It is amazing that anyone can walk for free through these ruins into houses and sometimes with mosaics. In most countries it would all be roped off.
