ERETRIA – LOST CITY
Eretria is the second most important city on the island of Evia, both in ancient times and now. This city has even been involved in the Trojan War, and it can be proven to you by Eretria’s famous “Mosaic House”. Eretria is unimaginable without his Acropolis and the Artemis Temple. Eretria can be freely called a huge lost city with an unforgettable and significant history.
