Modern Athens
This is a picture of the Tower of the Winds with the Likavittos Hill in the background. The Tower of the Winds is now believed to have once been a mechanical timepiece which tracked the seasons ... the Likavittos Hill is the highest point in Athens and, if you climb to its peak, provides an incredible three hundred and sixty degree panoramic view of the city, the mountains and the nearby islands.
