You're standing among the ruins of Stagira, an ancient Greek city on the Chalkidiki peninsula, right next to the town of Olympiada. This place is famous above all for one man: the philosopher Aristotle was born here. Look around you. You can still see parts of the city walls, of houses and of public buildings.
