Chapter Ninety-ninth That was the most beautiful time
Of course, perhaps it is precisely because of this that people can have enough imagination space to create the unique acropolis of more than 2,000 years ago. The ancient market is not far from the acropolis and is one of the oldest German sites in Greece. Its important position is never inferior to the Acropolis of Athens. Its original site is left with only broken walls.
The word "plaza" is called "Angola" in Greek, and in modern Greek it means "market". It has a wide range of meaning in ancient Greek, mainly referring to places where political, religious and cultural facilities are concentrated. At that time, many Greek men not only shop here, but also discuss politics, exchange intelligence, and participate in debates here.
Socrates, Plato and others have all delivered speeches here. From the restored colonnade of Atros and the large number of sculptures displayed side by side, you can feel the scene of the popular democratic debate back then. In the ancient market, you must be careful step by step, because there are scattered exquisite carved stone slabs, stone statues, and stone tablets thousands of years ago.
Yunluo could hardly imagine that the local government could allow such precious cultural relics to be idle on the roadside so casually, so Yunluo once suspected that these were fakes, and put the handbag on an inconspicuous stone mount. Unexpectedly, he was immediately stopped by the staff, which made Yunluo feel guilty. The Athenian government is really "rich and powerful". With too many cultural relics, it seems that the management will be much more casual.
After coming out of the ancient market and passing through a food street full of art and leisure, you can quickly find the subway transit station in Nastiraki. This is a relatively large transit station in Athens, where many lines meet.
At this time, it was actually in the alleys of Plaka. The old city of Plaka sells natural sponges, local specialty small jewelry, imitations of ancient sculptures, postcards, etc., generally 3-10 euros.
However, in Yunluo's opinion, the craftsmanship is relatively rough and heavy. In terms of its price (converted to RMB), the cost-effectiveness is not high, so Yunluo bought almost nothing in the end. The gold jewelry store has complete goods and is unique, but because Yunluo can't tell the difference, he is afraid of being cheated of the lack of weight and the lack of weight, so even though he was itchy when he saw it, he still dared not put it on the fork.
Finally, I couldn't resist the scorching sun and hunger, and Yun Luo got heatstroke. I was almost caught by Yan Chenyu to a restaurant near Ermou (eptouch Υ) Street. I ordered a portion of grilled squid lledoctopus (19.9 euros), a portion of tomato stewed kokkinisto, and a portion of European (every restaurant makes it very standard.
But the white cheese still made it difficult for Yunluo and Yan Chenyu to swallow. The prices on the menu ranged from 2-5 euros than netizens said. I don’t know if the price has increased or the store is too expensive. But no matter what, the expensive grilled octopus in this store quickly relieves Yunluo from the heatstroke, and the octopus feet are full of energy.
With the secret lemon herb juice in the store, it just right to highlight the visual and taste of the grilled octopus. After eating it, the scent of the lips and teeth left, making Yunluo, who likes sourness, quickly fall in love with the strange and familiar Greek cuisine.
After eating 44 euros in this first meal, Yunluo and Yan Chenyu quickly converted it into RMB.nn in their minds. They were all enough to go to the five-star buffet and were heartbroken (actually, I got used to it later. When I saw things that cost a few euros or dozens of euros, Yunluo and Yan Chenyu just said that it was very cheap, and it was only a few dollars/a few dozen dollars. It seems that the price standard was easy to change).
But just pointing at such a delicious grilled octopus, it’s worth it! At 3 pm, we watched the soldiers handover in Constitution Square, Yun Luo and Yan Chenyu were already extremely tired. Yun Luo was very "lucky" to be selected by a local female hijacker. Haha, I didn’t expect Yun Luo to have such a high degree of alertness when he was in a heatstroke (or the technical content of foreign thieves is too low).
After being discovered by Yunluo, she pretended to be an ordinary tourist and took photos quickly. But the shawl she put on her arms exposed everything - in such a hot day, I was so worried that I could do something with a shawl. Relying on the last bit of energy to return to the hotel, collapsed until 10 o'clock in the evening, woke up and went to bed. I hope everything would be fine tomorrow!
Some netizens said, "The bus from the airport to the city is x95 (not e95). The 2.9 euro ticket clearly states that it can be one way + take any means of transportation within 24 hours in the city. Some seniors also said that it is very cost-effective to calculate the time before coming back. But in fact, you cannot buy such tickets in Athens when you come back."
However, the x95 (price increase to 3.2 euros) did not include 24-hour transportation, so I bought a 3 euros sky ticket. However, the subway tube in Athens was too loose. There was no barrier, and no one checked the tickets - Yunluo did not see the locals calling for tickets anyway.
Of course, Yunluo personally thinks that it is better not to evade tickets, mainly because he is afraid that if he catches a heavy punishment, he will not be worth the loss. Who said that Yunluo and Yan Chenyu are from other places? The x95 station is the station as soon as they go out of the airport, which is very easy to find (no need to cross the road). It is absolutely correct to go to the Acropolis before 8:00, and the tour group after 9:00 is crowded.
It greatly destroys the elegant temperament of the architecture and the atmosphere of reminiscing about the years. The most important thing is to take photos and stay will be blocked by the crowd. It is recommended to do your homework in advance to have a certain understanding of architecture, culture, and history, so that you can find sublimation and beauty in the ruins. Find relevant maps and introductions (it is best to directly match real-life pictures), otherwise it will be useless to read them.
Yunluo and Yan Chenyu only took the text introduction to see it. Due to the influence of language and road signs, Yunluo and Yan Chenyu could hardly match the scenic spots and text explanations, and could not tell which was at all.
The Acropolis has a 12-euro package, and there are six attractions. In Yunluo's opinion, it is a waste to visit it in a day. However, according to the guide of the predecessor, it is valid within a 3-day period, but Yunluo did not find any relevant words on the ticket. Of course, it did not write the validity period.
It is recommended that mobile phones with GPS function download maps of travel destinations in China. Due to language and text reasons, Yunluo and Yan Chenyu can easily lose their location. It is not enough to rely on paper maps alone. It is very difficult to find toilets in Athens. It is recommended: if you can go there, you can go there, don’t expect to find a public toilet - Prakayuji.
Personal opinion: Although the restaurant introduced by netizens is very good and cheap, for those who are not familiar with the road, it is too energy and time to go around for a restaurant. Yunluo seems to be too exhausting and eating when you are hungry, and you may find unexpected discoveries.
Small coffee shops are everywhere on the streets of Athens, selling bread, milk and juice. The prices are cheap. (The density and popularity are similar to that of Chongqing’s noodle shops) You can buy 1 liter of milk for 1-2 euros, and the bread is 2-5 euros, which is cheaper than the breakfast provided by the hotel.
The most exciting day is coming! Heat stroke, fatigue and even hunger are quickly defeated in front of the spiritual power. Early in the morning, Yunluo immediately returned to the overcharged state, holding (note. Not dragging) the heavy suitcase, trotting all the way to the Piraeaus Pier.
After leaving the subway station, cross the overpass and arrive at the dock. Blu Star gets the ticket point, right next to e6.e7. You can find it by looking at the signposts (about 200 meters after getting off the overpass). Give the printed tickets to the staff and you can quickly get your tickets. Be careful to ask the dock where you board the boat, because Yun Luo and Yan Chenyu's boats are not docked in a place that you can see.
The staff reminded Yun Luo and Yan Chenyu to take a white free bus near the overpass. Then they could reach the correct pier (I don’t know if the pier is fixed). After getting on the bus for more than 10 minutes, they finally drove. They encountered a rare Dongfang Kong in the bus. When everyone chatted, they turned out to be a compatriot, and they felt like they met an old friend in a foreign land.
Yunluo and Yan Chenyu purchased deck tickets. When they got on the boat, they were asked to pile all their luggage in the ferry cabin on the negative floor (it is estimated that people with cabins can take their luggage onto the boat). It was so messy, with all kinds of luggage all over the sky and the earth. Yunluo and Yan Chenyu were very worried about the safety of their luggage. But everyone was accustomed to seizing the most favorable terrain and did not have any inventory notes.
No one could enter. Yun Luo and Yan Chenyu had to follow the customs. They squeezed their luggage with their Hong Kong compatriots and hurried onto the boat. The boat was about 3-4 floors. In addition to the cabin ticket, there were also airplane seat cabins (with air conditioning), as well as small indoor bars and top deck bars.
The drinks on the deck bar are not much more expensive than on the shore, and they won’t be driven away without ordering drinks, so everyone can rest assured. The only downside is that there is no air conditioning on this floor. However, because it avoids direct sunlight and has good ventilation, it doesn’t feel very hot.
Set sail at 9:00 and head towards the sea of love that I have been dreaming of for a long time. The warm and humid sea breeze swept across the couple who kissed passionately. The colorful clothes set off against the endless blue sea, and ancient legends bring endless imagination. Everything is so natural and beautiful, and it is natural. Love does not require any deliberation, and it is about to emerge in this slow shaking.
However, in Yunluo's view, although the sea is open, it is a bit monotonous. Only the islands, ships, seabirds and dolphins that appear from time to time have become the finishing touches, so that they can appear surprised without being tired.
14:20 Yunluo and Yan Chenyu drove into a half-encircled bay and arrived at the surging holy island. Regarding the holy island, Yunluo wanted to write very little words because the language was not as intuitive as the pictures, and the pictures were far less beautiful than witnessing and feeling.
Very good at reading the photos taken by Yunluo, they praised Yunluo's photography technology for improving. In fact, Yunluo still uses the foolish SLR, and his composition level has not improved. The key is that the scenery here is beautiful and harmonious no matter how you take it, it is a postcard.
Holy Island can not only fully demonstrate the talent of professional photography, but also satisfy the vanity of Yunluo novices. No wonder it has become a holy place for photography enthusiasts.
