I have seen the Acropolis many times online & tv but it cannot be properly appreciated until such a historic site is seen in person, not to mention all the various sites & artifacts on the path up to it. However, nothing prepares you for the sight of the Parthenon! It is truly wonderful & see inspiring! 1 of my friends has travelled far & wide, much more than me, & he actually said, " I think this is the greatest thing I have ever seen!"
