Night Athens

Places to visit

Athens is the capital and largest city of Greece. Athens dominates the Attica region and is one of the world's oldest cities, with its recorded history spanning over 3,400 years and its earliest human presence starting somewhere between the
11th and 7th millennium BC.

I am pleased to remember my trip to Greece. The city of Athens surprised with problems with migrants and parking.
But this is not a problem because you are in the birthplace of European civilization.
Myths of ancient Greece right before your eyes.
Acropolis. Mount Areopagus.

The Areopagus (/ˌæriˈɒpəɡəs/) is a prominent rock outcropping located northwest of the Acropolis in Athens, Greece. Its English name is the composite form of the Greek name Areios Pagos, translated "Ares Rock" (Ancient Greek: Ἄρειος Πάγος). In classical times, it functioned as the court for trying deliberate homicide. Ares was supposed to have been tried here by the gods for the murder of Poseidon's son Halirrhothius (a typical example of an aetiological myth).
