Ancient Messini

Reviewed By mikeo229 - Baldock, United Kingdom

Ancient Messini is a little off the beaten track (but quiet as a result) but well worth the visit. Not only does it have two well preserved theatres (a large Amphitheater and small Roman theatre), a large Agora with surrounding buildings, several temples and a host of smaller buildings, a Roman House with good mosaics but also one of the best preserved Stadiums you could ever wish to see. Many columns are still standing, especially around the stadium and the overall setting, surrounded by mountains is simply magnificent. Away from the main site (about 1k past the Museum heading out of town) is a well preserved gate and stretch of wall and, if you turn left just before reaching the gate there is another very well preserved stretch of wall. You need at least 2 hours to visit the main site and allow perhaps 30 minutes to visit the small Museum (included in the 12 Euro entrance fee) and another hour if you want to see the wall and gate. Back in town there is a good Taverna overlooking the site.
