Athena Was Worshipped as the guardian of the city which ulti- mately gave rise to the philos- ophy and mature that have with- stood the trial of centuries and formed the basis of our western civilization. , immortal Act The long and significant his- tory of Athens is . reflected in its great and' immortal monu- ments which stand as .pinnacles of classical art; in the remains of the Roman Period; the relics of the Byzantine Era with many churches and. splendid mosaics and the city's museums which are the repositories* of art trea- sures from all' ages. In order of importance these are the National Archaeological museums; "The Acropolis Mu- seum" "The Byzantine Muse- um", '"The Benaki Museum", "The Historical and Ethnological Museum", "The Museum of Greek Popular Art", etc. The perfectly proportioned Parthenon never fails to strike the visitor with a sense of time- less beauty, as do the graceful Temple of Athena, which once housed the statue of the 'Wing- less Victory", the Erecthelon, with its shapely Carytids and the imposing Propylaea During the hill moon, visitors are allowed on the Acropolis be- tween 0 p.m. and m dnight Those who have Hired this ex- perience claim it to be one of ' the most beautiful sights in the world. There are two ancient theatres at the foot of the Ac- ropolis, the theatre of Dionysos, built in 400 ILC., and the theatre of Herodes Atticus, built in the second century A.D., which has been restored and in which per- formances of the annual Athens Festival are held, Here one may see the ancient works of drama, tragedy and comedy, concerts and ballet. Other sites near the Acropolis are the Areopagus; the monument of PhIllapappos; the Pnyx, from which spectate tors watch the °Sott et Lutniere" performances on the Acropolis in the summer; and the 11111 of the Muses. A short'. distance from theNtorth aide Of the Ac- ropolis lie the rtlins 42 the an. - cleft Agora, or marketplace, which formed the centre of the ancient city's business 'life and where the Athenians met for scold and intellectual inter- course: The New Look The architecture of modern Athens is a combination of tail apartMent Iltdicilligs or °like buildings and buildings that date back to the middle of the ltith century when Prince Otho of Bavaria became the first king of Modern Oreece and brought overa team of Bavarian archi- tects to plan the capital in 1832. The Most spectacular view of the eity, can be enoyed from the top of Lycabettus Hill. The walk to the top takes about 30 min- utes. There is also a funicular railway through a tunnel in the rod that takes{yrou up in two and a half minutes. e habit of eating out at night: is so firmly entrenche1 in the Athenian way of life that there are probably more restau- rant% in Athens than in the rest of Greece put together. These range from high-class establish- ments in and around Athens to sinall taverns spread tiroughout the city and surrounding area.
