The tour starts at Korai Square and continues to the Academy of Athens, guarded by Athena and Apollo. From there we will proceed to Syntagma Square and then to Hadrian's Arch and the Temple of Zeus, the bridge between the Athens of Theseus and the Roman Athens. We will stroll through Plaka to the Lantern of Lysicrates and the Roman Agora, dominated by Hermes and Aphrodite. We will cross the Gate of Athena Archeguétida before ascending to the Areopagus, the scene of divine and human trials.
