This week, myself and another ECE student decided to check out the Acropolis. There is a large and high platform that is near the Acropolis which gives a view over most of Athens. While we had both been to the platform and thought the view could not get better than that, we realized that the Acropolis view from the very top was significantly higher. On the Acropolis, you can see from every side, a different view from each direction which shows signification points in Athens. One part shows the water, another the city cemetery, the Agora and even our apartment! The hike up was not nearly as bad as I thought it would be as we stopped to walk the trails that span the hill sides. We were able to see from three of the hill slopes and different temples.
