AGORA AND TANKS

100 m later, the great place above the tanks was the Greek agora, which was rearranged in a forum at the beginning of the Roman era. At this point of the visit, be vigilant if you are with children: The place is pierced by many non-meshboxes eyes giving directly access to deep tanks of 5 m! The visit of the tanks, with their maze of arched galleries, is the highlight of the visit. They can be reached by descending a small staircase at the south-east end of the square. Fed by an aqueduct, they were used to satisfy the freshwater needs of the city, in the absence of any source within 20 km of distance.
