According to Environment, Energy and Climate Change Minister Yiannis Maniatis, the budget for the project amounts to 5,650,000 euros and is going to be provided under the business program "Infrastructure of Transport, Environment and Sustainable Development."
The works are expected to highlight the landscape of the great sanctuary of one of ancient Greece's legendary doctor gods and it is even going to include a garden with healing and native plants. Parallel to this it is going to also include paths for visitors, and the parking area around the sanctuary will also be beefed up. Other works include an information kiosk promoting local Greek agricultural products and from what we hear even digital tours will be offered.
Moreover, a separate building is going to be raised to showcase the history of medicine, and will also be used for events such as congresses, and meetings.
The sanctuary of Asclepius also includes a temple to Asclepius, a stadium and baths, as well as several other large buildings.
