费尔吉纳十三陵及博物馆印象
-
Our group of doctor friends went here as a side trip from Thessaloniki.WOW!!I never knew King Phillip II had such an amazing burial site.This was a major site and very few people were there touring the site. It is hard to find and out of the way, but this could be a wonder of the world if it was developed and advertised.Make the effort and see this one!!You will love it.

I have certainly never experienced anything like it. Iis like to be there at the time that all these things happen not to mention that you feel so proud to be greek .Everything in the tombs was the best available at that time and still today it leaves anyone breathless.We hired a very good tour guide and i believe is worth to pay to have a guy giving you a tour it will cost yu extra 5 euro per person in generally but yu can bargain.Its a place that have to see if yu visiting north greece.

Why isn't this museum inundated with people? The artefacts and the fact you are walking with history makes this a must go to place if you are anywhere between Igoumenista and Alexandroupolis. Though perhaps I shouldn't write this as the place may get over run with tourists and lose some of its attraction...

Very interesting museum the exhibits of the tomb of King Phillip II of Macedonia are incredible as are the gold crowns of and all the findings which where discovered in the tombs

This archaeological site is very impressive. It features tombs of the royal Macedonian dynasty and the goods found in the tombs. The good thing is that treasures found in the tombs are displayed on the site. Some people did not like that taking pictures is not allowed, but I think it is actually good. The lack of fired flashes, and absence of I-phones or I-pads pulled out just before your face and obstructing your view makes the whole experience better and the display more impressive. (I guess you can visit the gift shop and buy some album or post cards).Unforgettable experience. Unmissable especially if you take a special interest in history of this region and this period.We have also used the first designated parking lot we saw, which was not necessary, as there are parking lots much closer to the tombs.

It is quite rate that you can have a museum in the site itself. Not only we can go under the tumulus where the tombs have been buried and see the tombs, but there is also at the same place some great parts exposed.The museum is large enough to be a destination and small enough for kids to still enjoy it. Also a video.Tip: A EUR1.5 guarded parking at the entry of the cillage or a free one a little bit closed to the tombs

There is a museum in Vergina, built in form of an ancient tumulus inside a large earth mound, unfortunately it is forbidden to take photos in here. In this museum can be seen 4 tombs of Macedonian kings, the most famous of them is Tomb of Philip II, father of Alexander the Great, and one small temple, a Heroon. Tombs are colonnaded with nice wooden doors, and looks like small temples placed under ground. As well can be seen many of grave findings, lot of them in gold, among them a gold larnax with the Vergina Sun, or a Macedonian Star, on the lock, the symbol of Macedonia.Museum is interesting to see, but gives a somewhat depressive feeling because of darkness. Anyway it is a must-see once.Nearby, near Pieria Mountains , between villages Vergina and Palatitsia is situated an Archaeological Site of Aigai, the capital of Macedonia until the 4th C BC. There are the ruins of two Royal Palaces with best Macedonian mosaics in situ, on the Acropolis of Aigai, as well as ancient Theatre, Temple of Eukleia and Sanctuary of Mother of the Gods, (mistress of animals), mother and virgin at the same time. Unfortunately, the Site was closed until further notice, and it is unclear when and if it can be visited. Pity.

It is an absolutely amazing site with tombs of the royal Macedonian dynasty and particularly King Philip II (father of Alexander the Great). The good thing is that they moved the treasuries back from museum in Thessaloniki and we could observe them where they should be - in the place of their finding. The bad thing is that they forbid taking pictures. Nevertheless it was an unforgettable experience. The place is gloom, but it is supposed to be so. When we arrived, we used the first designated parking lot we saw, which was not necessary. There are parking lots much closer to the tombs.

I don't think this archeological museum has a single rival in the world. I have certainly never experienced anything like it. To walk into Phillip's world, to walk among his things, to see the royal armour, the most beautiful gold artifacts of that time, to be right there outside the magnificent doors of his tomb, walking through the walls hewn out for his final resting place; this is all a most moving experience, The whole place is imbued with emotion: love, sacrifice, death, sorrow, courage, ambition, honour, hatred, murder, betrayal - a true Greek drama! The contents of the tombs like the silver services (of Phillip II and Alexander IV) have to be seen to be believed; the gold wreathes of fantastic beauty and quality. Everything in the tombs was the best available at that time and still today it leaves the spectator breathless.A word about practicalities: don't rely on the bus service to get to Vergina; car hire is cheap and will give you ample freedom for your visit. The drive will take you an hour or so. Although it does not seem to be mentioned anywhere, the Palace at Vergina has been closed for some years and from what I could see when I went up to the site, it will not be opened for several years to come. The same goes for the Theatre where Phillip was assassinated. The small bookshop which you pass on the way to the tombs has no opening hours displayed but it shuts before 4 pm (when the tombs are closed) because when I turned up at five minutes to 4, I found it firmly closed. Apparently it is the only bookshop in the area with a fairly interesting selection of books to be found.

Made a brief detour during a business trip to visit the museum. Didn't have the time to visit the entire area and the grounds. The museum is a jewel. It is easy to navigate. It has exceptionally beautiful displays of the items found in the tombs. The lighting was a bit low. Not sure if this was due to an attempt to save on the energy bill as there were only a few visitors as this is not the tourist season. I will definitly try to be back with the family to spend more time also visiting the entire area.
