Today the site is a jumble of atmospheric, tree-shaded ruins, and you'll need to use your imagination to visualize its glorious heyday. Dominating one end is the virtually reconstructed, fifth-century BC Doric temple known as the Thieío. Opposite, the two-story Stoá Attálou, a second-century BC arcade, has been restored by the American School of Archeology to give an idea of the glory of these ancient public buildings. It contains a museum with finds from the site. Address: Adrianou or Theorias Phone: 210 321 0185 Open: Tue.-Sun. 8:30-3 Metro: Thiseío or Monastiráki Admission: €2-€4 (free Sun.)
