Altar of Dionysus

I was so happy to be able to stand at this Altar, it's a part of history too many people have forgotten. But I was devisteted that it was so overgrown and and so many people just dropped rubbish all over. I couldn't understand why it had been left to get how it was

One of the small sites you will find dotted around the town, especially this part of town there is about 7 within a few hundred metres this and the southern part of the Agora are located in a small park.

One needs a lot of imagination to see something that simply is not there! And it's free because it would be hard to convince anyone to pay for a dozen rocks that may, or may not, have been from a temple dedicated to Dionysus. It's only a speculation. I also noticed that most reviewers bundle up the entire Agora with the Altar of Dionysus, so it's not a fair comparison.

There's nothing much left of the altar dedicated to the god of wine. However, the surroundings are nicely maintained, with steps and blocks giving a nice aesthetic to the place.

Ruins are always special, my 3 stars is representative of the disappointment that the area amd history is not maintained and full of rubbish.

Smallish ruins with a useful information signboard. Accessible 24/7

It’s a nice historical place besides from all the trash laying around. If you’d clean up the site it would be a much better view. I really appreciate the very big head marble statue that just lays calmly in the archeological dig.

It needs some TLC overgrown with litter all around even a bike thrown onto the ancient stones. You can still see the ancient site but in its present state it looks like a pile of old stones.. 😞
