- As twilight fades, you head towards Assos Ancient City. Walking hand-in-hand, the path illuminated by moonlight, you explore the age-old structures, whispering stories of the past.
- The journey concludes atop the ancient amphitheater. Steeped in moonlight, the ambiance is pertinently romantic, offering a perfect spot to rest, share a modest picnic, and stargaze.
Preparation steps:
- Ensure to check the operating hours of Assos Ancient City and any entry requirements or fees. Pack simple picnic gear—water, snacks, a blanket, and perhaps a LED lantern for better lighting.
- Dress comfortably for walking and sitting on uneven surfaces. Consider hats and breathable clothing since it can be warm even after sunset. Bringing a light jacket might be wise as it could get cooler under the moonlight.
- Prepare a playlist of soothing background music on a portable speaker to enhance the moonlit ambiance. Include soft instrumental or traditional tunes to align with the historical atmosphere.
