Terrace of the Lions

The Terrace of the Lions, most iconic spot of Delos, in front of the Sacred Lake. During the Antiquity, there were 9 to 12 of them, lined up to watch over the Holy Way. Victims of the wear of time, they don't really look like lions anymore. By the way, the lions you see on site are copies, the originals are exhibited in a room of the museum.



Terrace of the Lions

Good to know: it's forbidden to use a tripod to take pictures, just as it's forbidden to smoke and to pick up any pebble. The supervisors of the site are mingled with tourists, without any distinctive sign...
