My own culture and civilization
•
STUDENT DESPOINA APOSTOLAKI
A country with historical course from the 7th millennium BC,
Greece has a fascinating and interesting past. Historical
monuments in Greece and the Greek islands date from all time
periods, from the Mycenaean and the Classical times till the
Medieval and Modern Era. You will find bellow a list with the
most important historical monuments in Greece.
The culture of Greece has evolved over thousands of years,
beginning in Mycenaean Greece, continuing most notably into
Classical Greece, through the influence of the Roman Empire
and its successor the Byzantine Empire.
•
The Acropolis of Athens is an ancient citadel located on a high rocky outcrop
above the city of Athens and contains the remains of several ancient buildings of
great architectural and historic significance, the most famous being
the Parthenon
.
•
The Parthenon is an enduring symbol of Ancient Greece and of Athenian
Democracy. It is regarded as one of the world's greatest cultural monuments
KNOSSOS HERAKLEION CRETE
•
In a short distance of 5 km from Herakleion Town, Knossos is the most important
sight in Crete island. Discovered in the early 20th century by the British
archaeologist Sir Arthur Evans, the site was found almost intact and covered by
ashes. This led scientists believe that the palace was destroyed by a tsunami wave
caused by the volcanic eruption of Santorin in about 1,500 BC
.
KARYATID IN AKROPOLIS
•
A caryatid is a sculpted female figure serving as an architectural support taking
the place of a column or a pillar supporting an entablature on her head.
The Greek term karyatides literally means "maidens of Karyai", an ancient town of
Peloponnese. Karyai had a famous temple dedicated to the goddess Artemisin her
aspect of Artemis Karyatis.
ANCIENT OLYMPIA
•
Olympia is the place where the first ancient Olympic Games took place in 776
BC. These games were organized every four years to honor god Zeus and
according to the myth it was the famous hero Hercules who started these
games. Gradually these sports competitions became very important for all the
Greek cities and it was considered a great honor for a city-state if their athlete
won in the Olympic Games. The temples of Zeus and Hera and the Ancient
Stadium are today the most important sights in Ancient Olympia, while
excavations are still.
MYCENAE
•
Located on the north eastern side of Peloponnese, the town of Mycenae gave its
name to an entire civilization, the Mycenaean civilization. The giagantic city walls
that are said to have been built by Cyclops, the Lion Gate and the Treasury of
Atreus are the most important monuments and sights in Mycenae. Right next to
the ancient site, there is an interesting Archaeological Museum.
My view about Europe
• Europe and especially Greece, is experiencing one of the most significant
influxes of migrants and refugees in its history. Pushed by civil war and
terror and pulled by the promise of a better life, huge numbers of people
have fled the Middle East and Africa, risking their lives along the way.
International Monetary Fund Managing Director Christine Lagarde said
that the European Union and IMF common goal is to help Greece out of
the crisis and return to growth but they have not do anything yet. So, the
arrival of refugees in Greece suffering from a general crisis. The initial
frustration that felt the locals from refugees ,because they are live in
camps close to their affecting them and scarring them but the most
serious problem is that we can not live due to the fact that we have not
money. Stuck in Greece remaining 50,000 refugees and immigrants as well
as the closing of the Balkan Corridor and delay implementation of the EUTurkey Agreement forcing them to remain in standby mode about their
future. According to the latest official figures, the refugees in Idomeni
amounted to 13000 while still unsettled situation in the port of Piraeus,
where still more than 5000 refugees and immigrants.
•
•
This situation can not continue and the EU must intervene because there is an
economic problem we can not compete in . I think that barring people from my
country , Greece , maybe some people from other countries bothered from my
opinion but all I said are real.

Recommended Places to Visit in My Country
student Dainava Sofia
•
Generally speaking , there are many places that should be visited in my country by tourists. Below, will be
mentioned a few of them.
•
AKROPOLIS
•
The Akropolis is located in the capital city of my beloved country, Athens. Akropolis constists of one of the
least historical monuments that have been maintained through the years. Furthermore , Akropolis includes
Parthenon (temple) and Erechtheio.This place is recommended because those buildings are unique of
importance. Akropolis accepts thousands of people each year. Since Akropolis is almost near the center of
Athens , a spectacular choice of a cafeteria with view to Parthenon , would offer unforgettable moments,
especially in the night.
•
WHITE TOWER
•
White Tower is a tower with height 33,9 m in Thessaloniki .It is a monument admired both of
Greek people and people from all around the world. Everyone would pay for entrance to the
White Tower. Since, the Tower is located next to the sea , everyone would be able to feel the
smell of the sea and watch the view of the whole city from the top of a terrific building
simultaneously. Somebody could combine his visit to the White Tower with a walk to its
coastal road .

OLD TOWN OF RHODES
If you want something more traditional then you have to visit the Old Town, which is located to the known
island Rhodes. Old town is capable of offering to the tourist different kinds of entertainment and an
historical monument as well. If someone intends to have the time of his life , then has to start his day by
visiting the Castle of the Knights in the Old Town, since it is open only the mornings and noons. Then he
could spent his afternoon drinking a coffee and his night eating the speacialities of the island.Eventually , if
he wishes, he also could comlete his night by visiting the most known clubs and bars of the Old Town.
KNOSSOS
Knossos consists of an archeological area in the large island Crete,
which used to be an town of the Minoan civilization. The palace of
Knossos and its mulal are identified as excellent works of
architecture and painting.
