Ruins atop a hill. Forgot what each were already. The guide was explaining but my brain can't take all the info at once :/
Theatre of Dionysus (Greek God of party,drinking, theatre) (:
Acropolis Museum. Interesting fact: Built in the same dimension as the Parthenon and it is built at an angle which reflects the Parthenon during the day (: oh, and it's also built on some ruins as well therefore, the glass floors on some parts.

Work table to paint the statues/sculptures (:
Replica of the Parthenon made with Alabaster which aunt bought! (: Pretty!
