Creator's Key Takeaways
I think for me the big magic moment came when I realized I was standing where my human ancestors had been thousands of years ago.
It had about 75% 75% less of the tourists than the Acropolis. It wasn't packed at all. That made it magical.
I definitely recommend the Agora of Athens for so many reasons, if not just to be out in nature while admiring all the ancient beauty that surrounds you.
The Viking Star was just a magical place.
