Asclepieion at Kos

Interesting and nice place to visit. Sadly there is not that much too see and there are not a lot of signs with explanations, those with information are very easily to read, the sentences are a bit too long and complicated. A plus is the free ticket entry for EU students under the age of 25. Accessible by the local bus (1,50€ per ride)

The site is impressive and truly fascinating. However, the entrance fee is quite high (€15 per person), and more up-to-date information — for example, a 3D reconstruction or visual display in the nearby museum — would make it easier to imagine how the place once looked. The existing information boards feel somewhat outdated and could really use an update. And - the closing time / at least in October / is already at 18:30 !

Amazing place where you can walk around for a couple of hours, taking in the beautiful views and the beauty of the architecture of the past . The paths are quite poor in areas, and if you have trouble walking, this could be a problem. As others have said, the price of €15 is rather steep.If they used some of the entrance fee to make it more accessible with better pathways, it would not be as bad. The toilets are really poor and are just before you get to the ticket kiosk.

Stunning history, beautiful to see, not accessible unless you can do many steps! Also €15pp.. But we did and enjoyed.

I bought an online ticket and walked here from Kos town (30min). On a Dunday morning at 9am I was the first tourist to enter and had the place to myself for some time. The entire compound is surprisingly large with 3 terraces and fantastic views. Signposts explain the major buidlings.

There are no words to fully account the true wonder and inspiration of this place , the birth place of modern medicine in the west. The first medical hospital of it's type healed people from all over the world, paupers to kings the wisdoms and healing practices were open to all who required it. A must stop when visting the Isla of medicine.

We visited the Asclepieion during the week while we had a car rented (€15 per person). Overall, it was great, we both love history and sites like this on our travels, and it was fantastic. Our one, and only criticism, was that information points were few and far between, and the guides often crowded their groups in front of the information points so it didn’t leave a lot of room to read the limited information points there were. It’s worth noting that the on-site cafe, which is the only option for food and drinks on site, was quite expensive for what you got.

Amazing Greek history that don’t want to miss If you have knee problems it would be hard for you to climb but otherwise great views. Put on comfy shoes! You can see Aegean Sea 🌊 and Turkey 🇹🇷 from the highest points. Being a physician to visit Asclepieion is a must! Entrance fee costs 15 € for adults. There is a cafeteria close by if you need to grab something light to drink and eat. We took freshly made orange 🍊 juice.
