2Acropolis – A Wonderful Glimpse Into The Past Of Ancient Greece

The Acropolis is home to a number of temples to the ancient Greek gods. It is the most complex and complete ancient Greek monument site left and offers a wonderful glimpse into the past of ancient Greece.

And that makes it a very special spot for viewing the setting sun. The Acropolis sits atop a huge hill, overlooking the surrounding countryside. As the sun begins to set, visitors are given the chance to see the shadows below them begin to lengthen, as the shadows of the ancient temples stretch out like the fingers of the gods themselves.
