Soli Theatre
Description
Rows of pale stone seating rise in a curve on the right and descend to a flat stage area on the left, where a man in a light shirt stands pointing. A second man stands among the lower tiers. Low ancient wall remains lie on the stage level. Beyond the theatre, the blue bay stretches to a distant shore, with several ships on the water, low buildings, and trees along the coast.
English
Stone seating tiers of the theatre at Soli curve down toward the stage area, with the sea of Morphou Bay visible beyond. Two men stand among the tiers and on the stage level.
