Roman Baths
When excavation works were undertaken to create ventilation for the Athens metro, the well-preserved ruins of a large Roman bath complex were unearthed in the spot where the Ilissos River once flowed. You can see a portion of these fascinating ancient ruins, which date from the 3rd century AD, at the Zappeion end of the National Garden.
