OUT OF PRINT: One image is better than thousand words... that´s the only thing I could say if I have to talk about Pinara... look the photo, that´s really Pinara, a place for Lord Byron or Percy Bysshe Shelley walking... and what to say about that intact theatre... you can listen the old verses hidden in their stones... a place for not to forget, a place to leave a little piece of soul.
