Through the imposing modern entrance we strolled around for about an hour, admiring the wonderful monuments to the departed. That of Heinrich Schliemann, one of the most famous ever archaeologists, is aptly in the form of a Greek Temple. We recognised many of the names with thoughtful memorials dedicated. Melina Mercouri's reflects the adoration she remains held in by her country. George Averoff, renowned philanthropist and businessman, has one of the most impressive dedications. Portrayed seated atop a multi-level creation in marble, it is a superb monument to such a life. Three Churches are here. At the entrance is the one of Saint Theodore, the largest. Greek Orthodox, it has a lovely façade in pale light azure hues.

It was interesting to learn that this famous place of scholarship from antiquity was excavated only in 1996 during preparatory works for a new Modern Art Museum. In the lovely early spring afternoon and under cloudless skies of azure it was grand strolling around it. Albeit only a few aspects of foundations are to be seen today, it is still evocative as it has the footsteps of one of the greatest ever philosophers and polymaths. It is also referred to as the Peripatetic School, as it is thought that Aristotle strolled amongst the verdant groves while discussing scholarship with his students.
7. Makri Street
The Makri street is known as the only street in Athens having orange trees forming rows on both sides of the street , but not only that ! On this street you can discover local bars such as the ''local'' drinks & meze , The Sunnies Roobar where you can take a picture of the city and the trees from above , the pin ball museum , and in case you are hungry you can take a bite at the corner taverns
8. Lofos Filitheis
