Hills of Athens


I like to take long walks and today I took one to see the Acropolis. It costed 20€ to get in so I decided I would rather walk around the area. After a while, I ended up on the Hill of Muses. There were no people and it was very peaceful. While walking among old trees, colorful butterflies and beautiful views, my soul was at ease.





On the top of this sacred hill there is the Philopappos Monument built around 114-116 A.D which can be seen from all over the city, just like the Acropolis. I later learned that back then it was described as
a monument built for a Syrian man.
