Wow. This huge marble gate must have been an imposing entrance to the city! Those Romans sure had some style.

Hadrian's Arch

posted by ashleyhotmama on 6 July 2009 at 01:24

Right by the Temple of Olympian Zeus stands Hadrian's Arch along Vassilissis Olgas and Amalias avenues. Once a city gate that connected Athens with the Roman quarters, the arch has inscriptions meant to be read by the passing people. One side reads "This is the city of Hadrian" and the other reads "This is Athens."
