    In the quiet moments before the site opens to the public, you can watch the military contingent arrive early in the morning to raise the Greek flag—presumably every day. Starting at 10 a.m., the site becomes overcrowded with visitors. The audio guide must be downloaded before the visit and remains an expensive service considering what it offers.
