POTD: The Neighborhood of the Gods

From 2022 11 03 Athens

"By the gods' side, dine.
Baklava's gold layers shine.
Plaka's blessings found."

This photo-of-the-day, showing "L" walking away from the camera, was taken in Plaka, "the old historical neighborhood of Athens, clustered around the...slopes of the Acropolis, and incorporating labyrinthine streets and neoclassical architecture. Plaka is built on top of the residential areas of the ancient town of Athens. It is known as the 'Neighborhood of the Gods' due to its proximity to the Acropolis and its many archaeological sites."

Bonus photos of our dinner in Plaka at a sidewalk cafe beneath the Parthenon are after the jump.
