Tucked below the rock of Acropolis, the Ancient Agora of Athens was once the heart of ancient Athenian democracy, serving as the central hub for administration and commerce where philosophers like Aristotle and Socrates debated.
This ancient site, occupied since the late Neolithic period, suffered significant damage from the Persians (480 BC), Romans (89 BC), and Heruli (AD 267).
Walking through the ruins is like a step back into time, highlights unclude the Stoa of Attalos museum, the well-preserved Temple of Hephaestus and the ancient hall of Odeon of Agrippa.
