Acropolis of Athens

#summervacay Standing atop the Acropolis with the Parthenon towering above was a bucket-list moment. The entire site radiates ancient power and beauty—there’s something surreal about walking where philosophers and emperors once did. The views over Athens are stunning, especially near sunset. It’s well-organized, with clear signage and history packed into every step. You’ll want comfy shoes and water in summer, but the heat doesn’t matter when you're this immersed in history.
