Ancient Syracuse: Park and Archaeological Museum

During the 4th century BC the Greek city of Syracuse has experienced an important urban expansion that has led to the birth of a new residential area: NEAPOLIS (new city).
To crown this district, King Ieron Il has created here a large sacred area consisting of the immense altar of Zeus and one of the largest theaters in the Greek world. The buildings were inserted in a monumental building context that made Syracuse one of the most beautiful cities in the Mediterranean. Only later did the Romans build the amphitheater, for bloody games.
The latomia, where the building stone was dug, will refresh our visit walking among legends, archeology and nature.
