The main display in the Acropolis Museum is the various cultural relics collected from the Acropolis. Many authentic products are here, but the things on the Acropolis are fake. The cultural relics inside represent the highest level of Greek art. The museum ticket is four euros, and many places cannot be photographed. Some large exhibits cannot be photographed, so they are all small collections.

Athens is a city with many cultural relics, especially the temples. We visited many temples in Greece. When we took a boat tour of the Aegean Sea, we also visited the famous temples on the island. Greece is still very cultural.

First, almost half of the exhibition halls cannot be visited due to the maintenance stage, which is a huge loss. The main exhibits have not been affected. There are many treasures in the town hall and they can be impressive. The hall can use the voice guide of the document activities, but it does not provide Chinese. The second floor is not interesting compared to the first floor. But there is no doubt that this is a great museum.

Constitution Square (Syntagma Square) is the main square in Athens, the Greek capital, located before the Greek Parliament, named after the Greek Constitution approved by King Otto on September 3, 1843 after the uprising. Constitution Square is north to Vassileos Georgiou A Street, south to Othonos Street, west to Filellinon Street, east to Amalie Street. Below the square is the subway station, and the nearby outdoor cafes are a popular downtown gathering place. There are two green areas north and south of the square, planted with shade trees, and the center is a large fountain to spend the hot summer with the Athenians. The most attractive spot on Constitution Square is the Unknown Soldiers Memorial (Tomb of the Unknown Soldier) in front of the Greek Parliament building, built in 1928 to commemorate the unsung Greek heroes who died in the war to escape Turkish rule. The main body of the Unknown Soldiers Memorial is the Unknown Soldiers relief, an ancient Greek warrior wearing a helmet lying on a slab. On both sides of the reliefs are two famous words: "This is the tomb of the world's outstanding soldiers", "is the spiritual bed for the unnamed soldiers". The reliefs are inscribed with 11 place names on the bottom left and 12 on the bottom right, all places where the Greek army and the foreign-army have fought in history. Every hour, a presidential guard change ceremony is held in front of the unnamed martyr's tomb between the square and the parliament. On Sundays and official holidays, most guards participate in the changing of guard and are accompanied by military bands.

The scene must be accompanied by a background story, otherwise it will only look at the ruins of a pile of stone pillars. Limestone, the roof is built in marble. Supported by 34 Corinthian columns about 17 meters high, 13 long and 6 wide. Its gables and interior hall porch are beautifully carved marble, and there are many Athens-style statues in the glaze.

It is a very busy area - but has so many nice shops and restaurants and street vendors.It is particularly nice in the evenings (though more crowded) in the summer with the sun down and less heat.On the weekends it seems there are even more street vendors.

Greece is the birthplace of Western civilization, with a long history. From 3000 BC to 1100 BC, there was a Minoan culture in Crete, and from 1600 BC to 1050 BC, there was a Mycenean culture in the Peloponnesian Peninsula. In 800 BC, a slavery city-state was formed, and the 5th century was the heyday.

Historical Sites
D了个Y
Built in 161 AD in memory of his wife by the Greek philosopher of the Roman Empire, on the south side of the Acropolis, the Acropolis was the oldest theater in the world and the most outstanding building of the same period, and until now this ancient theater is in perfect repair. Today, it is still in use. The main venue for the annual Athens Festival is here. It is also an eye-opening theater for audiences who come to see the performance. The theater is a three-story building. 32 rows of seats can accommodate up to 6,000 spectators. It is a typical semi-amphitheater. Any point can clearly see the performance on the stage, the background of the stage is the Roman window-shaped wall, the alcove is decorated with statues, the design is very exquisite, especially at night, it looks particularly artistic, there is a sense of history.
