introducing #lavriotecca

This is my effort to provide some information and material for #lavriotecca to visitors coming every year from all over the world to enjoy the unique sunset and the stunning view from Cape Sounio to the Aegean Sea.
Unfortunately, in the majority they miss the opportunity to have a look at the Ancient Theatre of Thorikos which is situated 13 kms northern or pay a visit at the local museums where the local history and treasure of Lavrio is kept.  Lavrio, is a small town situated at the south part of Attica just 35 kms from Athens international airport, 60 kms from Athens centre and just 10 kms from Cape Sounio where the famous Temple of Poseidon stands for more than 2000 years. Famous by its long history, silver-lead mines and its heavy industrial zone developed early in the 20th century. Also, Lavrio has the biggest National Park in Attica province, where it lies on the mountain range to the west and south for about 35 square kms.

Furthermore, Lavrio consists of an attraction for ferries, cruise ships, yachts, charter companies and fishing boats because of its big natural port and the facilities which are developed in the surroundings.
I hope you will find a portal to this wonderful part of Attica - Athens through my blog
