Very nice pic and information, I agree with you about metro is the best one. Lina
I agree about Evzones' pic [singular soldier]. A special one. Going to visit there next month, and you give me one more perspective.
Marvelous photograhs and an super overview of Athens, that wonderful historical city.
Ihave been to the Greek isles but never to the mainland, and the Acropolis is what i would really love to see.
Yes, PG seemed to have had a great eye for photography.. and people! ;) The evzones with their tights and fluffy footwear must be adorable. Not sure if that's the fearsome martial mien they'd want to project!
Nice pictures, Pickels..and the greek soldiers on guard looks really neat with their attires and they are dancing...for the tourist? I'll be back...
