Sikiona - Corinthia (Greece)

Sikiona is located at the Corinthian bay, about twenty kilometres northwest of the city of Corinth in the Peloponnese, Greece. The archaeological excavations at Sikyon are worthwhile to visit, with the old theatre of Ancient Sikiona, which was one of the largest theatres of ancient Greece.

Sikiona  was an ancient Greek city-state, located in the north of the Peloponnese, between Corinth and Achaea. Vasiliko, a small village of about 1000 inhabitants, is now at the archaeological site. The municipality in which Vasiliko is located, Sikiona, is named in memory of the ancient city.
