    One of my favorite places I visited in Greece. It's a great representation of what ancient Greek architecture would have looked like if they were new, and if you come a little later in the day, the way the sun shines between the pillars is simply beautiful. The way the heavily-graffitied trains run right by it was also fun to see. The staff room door was open letting us see inside to find a tiny basketball hiding among a plate of oranges, which honestly entertained us even more than the museum did.

    A nice museum. Small but with several interesting exhibits. The rooms are air-conditioned, providing a brief respite from the heat outside. From the upper floor, there's a beautiful view of the Temple of Hephaestus and the Ancient Agora. Entrance to the museum is included in the price of the Agora ticket.
