The acropolis of Athens is the most visited archaeological site in Greece. Marvelous constructions exist around and on the sacred hill of Athens. The Parthenon, the Erectheion, a roman auditorium, ancient greek theater and much more. But these monuments are "empty" without the guidance of an expert who will unfold all the stories that "dress" these marbled miracles.
