    Awesomely amazing. I heard a construction joke once that the ruins were never actually completed :) I watched a movie about Alexandria this week and it seemed its citizens regularly trashed their city and each other over religious differences. Such a shame. It took another 1200 years before prevailing attitudes allowed since to develop.
    At least they left behind some spectacular architecture!

    It's just amazing how old that stuff is. Makes me curious about how the people lived and how they built it.

    We certainly don't still things like that in America. We tear things down and build over it.

    Are you there now? I read it's a bit chaos there with protest and all.
    But indeed, Greece has a lot to show and Athens is rich in awesome ancient structures. Stunning photos you shared here.

    Beautiful images of the ruins. They are still architecturally magnificent in their landscape.
