ACROPOLIS

The Acropolis, awesome and aloof on its limestone mesa above
hectic modern Athens, is so integral to the texts of our history
books—and the subtexts of our imaginations—that it is one of
those near-mythic monuments you feel you’ve seen even if
you never have.—Owen Edwards

Stroll around the Acropolis with Owen Edwards in the October
1999 issue of TRAVELER.
