Athens, 'Greece; In mythology
.Athens took its name from Ath-
' ena, the Goddess of Wisdom,
who won. the cityIn If contest
with Poseidon; God of the Sea.
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.
Others located on the Apollo
Coast, are enclosed in the ,
win-
ter and move their tables and
dance floors out in the open in
the stimmer.
