The Acropolis at night |

We are currently working to add new galleries, with more photos and detailed information about the sights and sites of Athens.
We begin, as you would expect, with the Acropolis.
The Acropolis gallery has - so far - 36 pages of photos and information about one of the world's most famous rocks and its inspirational monuments. |

With over 30,000 photos and 200 articles to sort through, we are sifting the pixels and paragraphs to bring the My Favourite Planet pictorial guide to Athens online - gallery by gallery - as speedily a possible.
Here are some of the city's highlights due to appear in the near future. |
