Athens : mother of Europe

by GUYON - last update: Jan 3, 2003

Acropolis

Parthenon
When I was a child, one of the first history lessons was about the Greek civilization and Acropolis is the illustration of my book I best remember.
For this purpose, I cannot avoid the photograph of the Parthenon as the symbol of Athens.
Everything about Acropolis have already written by other VT members. I must say something new.
When I prepared my trip, I used the Matt Barett's Survival Guide I found very useful because it is full of living experience. I brought a copy of it during my stay and I showed the page which was dedicated to them in a jewellery. They are "blasé" and put me under the eyes an article about their shop saying "everybody know us".
The web site is www.athensguide.com. Have a look on it. It worths it.

 The pedestrians are completely ignored by the car drivers in Athens :(
