Apollonia
Apollonia is the archaeological remains of an ancient Greek colony and later Roman city in southern Illyria, located beside the Aoös/Vjosë river in present-day Albania. The site is an open archaeological park of scattered foundations, terraces and partially standing classical monuments dating from the Archaic through Roman periods.

What Apollonia looked like in its prime.
A low grassy plain peppered with low stone and brick foundations stretches to a raised classical colonnaded facade on a stepped stone platform. The colonnade rises from broad steps to a triangular pediment, which is broken in places; flanking walls of brick and stone extend from the podium. Olive and oak trees enclose the ruins on a gentle slope; unroofed masonry, cut blocks and terraced brickwork define former streets and buildings.
