Orchestra

View looking northwest across the orchestra area of the theater at Delphi.

The theater has 35 rows of seats, a diazoma and could hold about 5,000 spectators. Several portions of the cunei are visible as are the stairways that separate them.

The orchestra area is almost a complete circle. It is paved with polygonal stone slabs and has a diameter of about 60 ft. [18 m.].

Beyond and above the cavea of the theater the base of the Phaedriades Cliffs are visible.
