Good Friday

Good Friday is a Christian holiday commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and his death at Calvary. It is observed during Holy Week as part of the Paschal Triduum on the Friday preceding Easter Sunday, and may coincide with the Jewish observance of Passover. It is also known as Holy Friday, Great Friday, Black Fridayor Easter Fridaythough the last term properly refers to the Friday in Easter week. (By Wikipedia)

My Athens

I decided to create a photo album about Athens.
Before saying anything about this city, I will talk a bit about the photos in general.
The photos therefore reflect our lives and of course various aspects.
So leafing through a photo album, the memory comes alive as all events spring up and try to climb the wall of reality, but this can not be succeed, but it can give the illusion of a resurrection of a certain time every moment of our lives.
As for Athens, apart from the amazing archaeological and historical monuments through walks in the old neighborhoods, you can discover old houses preserved and other worn by time, several small shops, restaurants, traditional tavernas, as you can find in every corner something new and exciting.
Athens is simply magical.
My Athens counts many kilometers and photographic survey.
I hope you enjoy it, as much as I do!
