Apollonia (Sousa)

Located in Al-Jabel Al-Akhdar (the "Green Mountains") in the eastern part of the country, Apollonia was established by the Greeks as a port to Cyrene in the 7th century.  Ancient Apollonia is one of the Pentapolis (or "The Five Cities") and has several churches, a small theatre carved into the rocks, public baths, and the walls of the city are considered to be very well preserved ancient ruins.

 

In addition to the museum, Apollonia has its famous Basilicas and a Byzantine palace.
