The day begins beneath the Parthenon's shadow: sunlight warms the worn steps as a local guide leads a steady ascent, the city's pulse spreading out from Athens' limestone crown. Visitors move from the shaded approach to the Acropolis into open marble light, where columns stand like weathered sentinels and the breeze seems to carry stories of orators and builders.
