The Parthenon (Temple to Athena) was definitely a sight to see. It was just as magnificent as I expected it – except for the fact that it was under construction. Which, I guess it has to be renovated some time. But of all times, when I am there? Oh well. I thought I would document it, and then I decided that I really liked showing the dichotomy of ancient and new, stone and metal, authentic and fake. If there were no construction materials it would be beautiful, but now it’s interesting.
