Greek Theatre

The photograph is of a traditional Greek amphitheater from the early AD period. It was the ideal setting for plays and performances alike with the stage in the center and all rows of seating on an incline so there's no bad seat in the house. Even though traditional theaters today have a slight curve in the audience around the stage, they're not as circular as you see here. It looks as if the seating has been restored, and although the backdrop is in ruin, it's a beautiful sight to see.
