When visiting Greece, it\u2019s not only<\/em> about delicious meals in cozy taverns and relaxing days at the beach (although\u2026 we highly recommend both ). Many travelers, especially our Omilo students, love to dive a little deeper: exploring ancient sites, attending concerts, or even experiencing a live theatre performance under the Greek sky.<\/p>\n

And here comes the good news\u2026<\/p>\n

At the stunning archaeological site of Epidaurus, combined with a visit to the charming village of Palaia Epidaurus, you can enjoy all of this in one place! History, culture, nature, and atmosphere…perfectly combined.<\/p>\n

Epidaurus<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Nowadays, two modern towns have the name Epidavros:
\nThe Old Epidaurus – \u03c0\u03b1\u03bb\u03b1\u03b9\u03ac \u0395\u03c0\u03af\u03b4\u03b1\u03c5\u03c1\u03bf\u03c2<\/i> and
\nthe New Epidaurus – \u039d\u03ad\u03b1 \u0395\u03c0\u03af\u03b4\u03b1\u03c5\u03c1\u03bf\u03c2<\/i>.<\/p>\n

If you visit the region for the first time, it can be a bit confusing, so let’s start with some explanations and geography!<\/p>\n

New Epidaurus – \u039d\u03ad\u03b1 \u0395\u03c0\u03af\u03b4\u03b1\u03c5\u03c1\u03bf\u03c2<\/i>.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

This is a village, in the east of Argolis peninsula, 40 km east of Nafplion.
\nUntil 1928 it was called Piada. The residents are mainly farmers and fishermen.
\nDuring the summer months, they are involved in tourism like running hotels, restaurants and bars.
\nThe settlement is built in the interior part of a steep rock only few kilometres from the sea.<\/p>\n

Old Epidaurus – \u03c0\u03b1\u03bb\u03b1\u03b9\u03ac \u0395\u03c0\u03af\u03b4\u03b1\u03c5\u03c1\u03bf\u03c2<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Epidaurus<\/b> \u00a0was a small city in Ancient Greece, and now it is a\u00a0 village.<\/p>\n

The Little Theatre of Ancient Epidaurus<\/strong><\/p>\n

Old Epidaurus\u00a0 has a “little theatre”, in the heart of the village, near the port of Palea Epidaurus.
\nAlthough it is older than the well-known great theater of Asklepiion of Epidaurus (at 8km – for info, see below), its presence remained in obscurity until the 70s.
\nThen it was discovered, under a field of olive trees and its restoration process continues till today.<\/p>\n

Its construction started in the 4th century B.C. and was originally built to cover the needs of this small city-state, so its size was not big.
\nIt had 9 tiers and 18 rows of seats and could host about 2,000 spectators. Some seats have inscriptions which show that the theatre was dedicated to the God
\nDionysus, the ancient Greek god of theater, wine ..
\nIts position is excellent, in an atmospheric setting, with views reaching to the sea from the upper stands.
\nIt was rebuilt in the Roman era and continued to function for 700 years, until it was lost under tons of soil and forgotten.<\/p>\n

The Epidaurus Little Theatre hosts today the annual Greek Festival, celebrated in summer with music, dance and theatre performances.
\nThere are seats for 800 spectators and work is done to restore more of them. The performances are mostly held in modern or ancient Greek.<\/p>\n

Getting there;
\nThe Little Theatre of\u00a0 Epidaurus is located in the Argolis prefecture of the Peloponnese. It is a 45-minutes drive from Nafplio and approximately two hours from Athens.
\nEntry to the Little Theatre is via Palea Epidaurus. You can also go by KTEL bus from Athens to Old Epidaurus, and then walk another 15 minutes.<\/p>\n

\"little<\/p>\n

It is also close to the beach, so it can be combined with swimming and a tavern meal next to the sea!<\/p>\n

Epidaurus and its Ancient Theatre.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Epidaurus was the main sanctuary of Asklepios in Greece (read more info below).<\/p>\n

The Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus is located within the archaeological site of the Sanctuary of Asklepios.
\nIt is a half-hour drive from Nafplion and approximately two hours from Athens. The Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus is again in use, and the most popular tourist attraction in the area.<\/p>\n

The impressive amphitheater was built in the 4th century BC, lying, as do most Greek theatres, against a slope.This theatre is by far the best-preserved theatre in Greece and has magnificent acoustics. The first row was reserved for dignitaries; their seats have backs, making them into regular chairs. The complex had two entrances; the western has been restored to give an impression of the original theatre. The sk\u00e8n\u00e8 (stage) in its oldest phase had been a simple tent, but was later made of wood.
\nNowadays, during performances, a new stage building is erected on the site.<\/p>\n

Take a\u00a0 look at our video below.<\/a><\/p>\n

\"epidaurus<\/a><\/p>\n

The magnificently built venue is dedicated to ancient Greek drama, hosting tragedies and comedies performed by Greek and international theatre groups alike, with English subtitles for international visitors. Capacity: 14,000
\nThe theatre also hosts part of the important \u201cAthens and Epidaurus festival\u201d,
\nwhich is usually staged in the summer, bringing ancient and modern plays, musical performances etc.

Who is Asclepius (or Asklepios)?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Epidaurus was the main sanctuary of Asklepios in Greece, originally a \u201csacred forest\u201d, an enclosed territory dedicated to Asklepios.<\/p>\n

Asklepios is the Greek god of healing. In mythology, he was the son of Apollo and the Thessalian princess Koronis, who died at childbirth. Asklepios himself was rescued and suckled by a goat. He was brought up by the centaur Cheiron, who instructed him in the art of healing, becoming so successful, that he even cured death. Of course, the god of death complained and Asklepios was killed by a thunderbolt hurled by Zeus, the king of the gods.<\/p>\n

His cult was immensely popular in the 4th century B.C. From all over the Hellenistic and Roman world the suffering came to his sanctuary for a cure. After the perquisite rites, they would go to sleep in the “enkoimeterion” close to the temple, in the hope that they would be visited by the god himself who would show them a cure or perform an operation himself. (As you might know, \u03ba\u03bf\u03b9\u03bc\u1f71\u03bc\u03b1\u03b9 means \u2018to sleep\u2019, so a \u03ba\u03bf\u03b9\u03bc\u03b7\u03c4\u1f75\u03c1\u03b9\u03bf\u03bd is \u2018a place to sleep\u2019, although most suffering would gladly escape the English derivative, a \u2018Cemetery\u2019).<\/p>\n

All the buildings around the temple were erected for these pilgrims and many votive gifts testify to the gratitude of the cured.<\/p>\n

From Epidaurus, the cult of Asklepios spread over the ancient World. In his sanctuary at the Greek island of Kos, medicine developed into a science. Later his cult was also brought to Rome where Asklepios is named as Aesculapius.<\/p>\n

His staff with holy snakes has become a symbol of medicine.
\nThe Greeks regarded snakes as sacred and used them in healing rituals to honor Asclepius, as snake venom was thought to be remedial and their skin-shedding was viewed as a symbol of\u00a0rebirth and renewal.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

\"Epidaurus<\/p>\n

Nowadays,\u00a0 pharmacies around the world, still use the
\n“snake-sign”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/h2>\n

<\/h2>\n

Epidaurus Museum<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The museum next to the theatre houses numerous objects from the sanctuary, like a collection of medical instruments made of bronze and inscriptions referring to numerous diseases (tapeworm, eye-, kidney and bladder diseases), images of Asklepios and his daughter Hygeia and large parts of the sculptures of the temple of Asklepios.<\/p>\n
