    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[A three story stage with a Greco-Roman classical facade, originally adorned with statues and other regalia, sits in front of a semi-circle of steppes that serve as its audience, the cavea. The theater seems to sink into the ground, leading all attention to the stage in front. While the whole building was at one point covered in a roof made out of Cedar from the Levant, it now serves as an open air venue. The purpose same as it is today, music,festivities, and poetry recitals. After restoration in the 1950s it has become a popular place for concerts, shows, and other live events. It is a testament to ancient understanding of the needs of the population, that being a desire for public spaces.]]></dcterms:description>
