Description
Type: Single-day activity
Duration: 5 hours
* We will visit the Archaeological Park of Syracuse, the most significant in Sicily and possibly in the entire Mediterranean, as it contains a huge number of archaeological monuments dating back to various eras of the history of this city.
The first settlements on the site of modern Syracuse date back to the 14th century BC.
Ancient Syracuse was founded in the 8th century BC.
The park is located on the site of ancient Neapolis, which means New City in Greek.
There are many ancient monuments in the park.:
• St. Peter's Church Nicola
• Roman amphitheater
• the Triumphal Arch of Emperor Augustus
• the Greek theater of the first half of the 5th century BC, carved into the rock
• Ninfeo Cave
• the ear of Dionysius
The park is known not only for its historical monuments, but also as a botanical park.
All kinds of Mediterranean vegetation are collected on its territory, which are carefully cared for by park rangers.
I can't list everything, and it's not worth it. In general, there are a lot of interesting things here for history lovers.
