Temple of Artemis
An amazing scenery of temple of Artemis (Diana) and a beautiful museum
The sanctuary of Artemis at Brauron / Vravron is an early sacred site on the eastern coast of Attica near the Aegean Sea in a small inlet. The Archaeological Museum of Brauron/ Vravron — located around a small hill 330 m to the ESE — contains an extensive and important collection of finds from the site throughout its period of use.

Ancient Theater of Thorikos
The Ancient Theater of Thorikos built around 525 BC (approx 2550 years ago) is the oldest known theater in the world but lies almost forgotten & a short drive from the more famous Temple of Poseidon in Cape Sounion. Without guards or fences you can just walk into this site & imagine the performances that once graced its stage with the background of the Aegean sea in the distance.
