Ancient Stadium of Philipopolis

Description

The Stadium of Philippopolis is an ancient Roman Imperial Stadium, built by Emperor Hadrian in the beginning of the 2nd century AD, at the time Philippopolis was the capital of the Thracia Roman Province. Unfortunately, today the only uncovered and preserved part is the northern curved part of the stadium (sphendone), the rest lying buried under the city centre - main shopping and cultural districts.
