Butrint, Archaeological site at coastal Ksamil, Albania.
The ruins occupy multiple levels of a hill overlooking the Vivari Channel, displaying Greek theaters, Roman baths, and Byzantine churches.
First established in the 8th century BC by Greek settlers, Buthrotum developed into a major Roman colony by 44 BC.
The archaeological complex includes a Greek theater from the 3rd century BC that accommodated 1,500 spectators and contains intricate stone carvings.
The site remains open daily from 8 AM to 5 PM, with guided tours available in multiple languages at the entrance.
The ruins contain a sanctuary dedicated to Asclepius, the Greek god of healing, featuring carved stone serpents and medicinal symbols.
