The Roman theatre of Philippopolis in Plovdiv is one of the best preserved anywhere, its marble seats curving down the Old Town hillside towards the Rhodope Mountains, and it still hosts concerts and opera. Below the main shopping street, the curved northern end of Plovdiv's Roman stadium shows its marble seating on Dzhumaya Square. In Sofia, the eastern gate and part of the arena of the Amphitheatre of Serdica sit inside a hotel lobby, free to visit. Book ahead for a summer evening performance in Plovdiv.
