    It looks like a really lovely room inside, but unfortunately it's closed to the public...

    Gorgeous mosaic but not well protected. There are some other ancient Greek ruins, good to spend time n walk around.

    The actual Ninfeon building seems to be closed to the public and we passed by several times at different times and it was always closed. Seems really nice in the pictures you can find in the internet and it is a pity we couldn't visit it... the rest of the site is open from 8:00 to 20:00...

    reconstructed section of a villa, during the Italian domination, the courtyard to be exact. the mosaic floors are original. it's not possible to get inside, but there are openings on the sides to see through.

    Great place. It's doesn't get 5 stars because some the ruins, such as the mosaics need more protection from e public.
