The visit of the Agora, an area which extends over the North-west slopes at the Acropolis concludes our tour.
The heart of Ancient Athens, with the imposing temple of Hephaistos (5th century BC) was the place political gatherings and debates, elections, trading activities, theatrical performances and athletic competitions.
