Stadium Entrance (1)

Stadium Entrance (1)

View looking northeast at the beginning of the long tunnel (built about 200 B.C., covering now missing)  that led into the stadium from the west — from the area of the Temple of Zeus.  This entrance was used by the judges, officials, and athletes.  The arch has been reconstructed in recent times.
