[Parthenon] Impressive size! A view point with a panoramic view of Athens

The Parthenon is right outside of downtown Athens! This time, I took a morning walk from a nearby hotel, and headed there as soon as the gates opened. As I walked up the stone steps, I could see the huge Parthenon and the Athens cityscape right in front of me, which was very impressive. [Sightseeing Tips] ○Morning is recommended! →I had heard that it gets very crowded during the day, so I arrived about 20 minutes before the gates opened. Dozens of people were already in line at this time. In the afternoon, it seems that it gets too crowded and you can't get in, or you have to wait for several hours. ○Buy tickets in advance →I went before the gates opened, but there was quite a line at the ticket booth. I also finished sightseeing in about an hour, and when I passed by the entrance, there was quite a line, so I think it would be smooth to buy tickets online in advance. ○Bring drinks →It's larger than I expected and has ups and downs, so drinks are a must. I forgot to drink something when I left the hotel, so I thought about buying some on the way, but there are hardly any around the ruins, so it's better to buy some in advance and take them with you. [Note] ○You'll be walking a lot on cobblestone streets, so sneakers are recommended. Parthenon/Acropolis #Parthenon #Acropolis #Greece #Athens
