There are a lot of reasons why everyone should hope to visit the Acropolis in Athens if you ever get the opportunity. It is absolutely amazing on so many levels, whether visually, historically, or culturally, it is an important landmark for many reasons. For those of us\u00a0 who treasure democracy, the fact that the foundations of democracy were envisioned over two-thousand years ago is an astounding\u00a0reality when you\u00a0consider how long it took to actually implement. Whether you believe in the possibility of a world governed by multiple gods or not, understanding\u00a0how the ancient Grecians viewed the connection\u00a0between natural events and the supernatural world is still fascinating. Unlike\u00a0most modern\u00a0religions, the Greek gods and goddesses were endowed with human traits and weaknesses, something that seems hard to imagine in a world where higher powers are deemed as infallible.<\/p>\n
