In honour of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, ancient Athens ranks alongside Rome for its glorious past and its influence on Western Civilization.
These are pictures I took at the Roman Agora, which was to the west of the Acropolis. Its principal monument is the wonderful Tower of the Winds, which was built in the First century BC by a Syrian astronomer named Andronicus.

Beautiful. I don't know when will I be there or will I ever be there?...
Don't think of it that way! It's too negative.
In fact, all places have their respective uniqueness and opportunities to visit many places depend on (1) our other plans that fetch more priorities; and (2) whether it's safety for us and our loved ones to travel there.
