  exceptional. Take the metro to the Aghia Marina terminus, then one of the buses that continues on Iera Odos Route de Corinth.

  Must see for those who want to understand the Byzantine Mosaic art a bit better. Free entry. Very friendly information office. If you want to spend a few moments away from downtown crowds, this is the place to sit down for a while.
