Athens is the capital and largest city of Greece. It is located at the southern end of the Balkans. It has a typical Mediterranean climate. It has a warm and humid winter, less rainy summer and plenty of sunshine.

This is one of the oldest cities in Europe and even the world. It has a clearly recorded history of more than 3,000 years and is known as the "cradle of European civilization".

It is also the birthplace of European philosophy and has had a significant impact on the development of European and world culture. It gave birth to a large number of historical great men such as Socrates and Plato, and is the origin of the so-called folk cooking.

In the entire Western world, Athens can even be called people's spiritual home, and its status is extremely important.

After more than three thousand years of long time, Athens still retains many historical sites and a large number of artistic works, radiating the bright light of civilization.

The most famous of these is the Parthenon in the Acropolis of Athens. It is regarded as a symbol of Western culture and stands on the top of the Acropolis of Athens.

In addition, Athens is also the origin of the modern Olympic Games and has held many Olympic Games.

When the convoy Ye Tian and his friends were riding entered the city of Athens, the darkness still enveloped the ancient city, and the people living in this city were sleeping in their dreams.

Because the night is dark, although Ye Tian and the others have entered Athens, they cannot appreciate the beauty of this city and experience the historical charm accumulated over the past three thousand years. It is somewhat regrettable.

However, when the convoy entered the central city of Athens and bypassed several hills of varying heights, everyone's eyes lit up in the convoy.

Not far ahead of the convoy, the Parthenon, standing on the top of the Acropolis of Athens, suddenly broke into everyone's vision.

Although it is early morning and darkness covers the earth and the entire city, under the illumination of landscape lights, the Parthenon on the top of the Acropolis of Athens looks magnificent, simple and solemn!

Suddenly, it looked like a temple falling from the sky, radiating extremely dazzling light, illuminating the entire Athens, the entire Western world, and Western civilization!

Seeing this scene, a sound of marvel immediately sounded in the convoy.

"Wow! It's so spectacular! It's so shocking! At this moment, I really realized the greatness of the Parthenon!"

"The Parthenon is so beautiful. Who would have thought that such a magnificent and solemn temple was built more than 2,500 years ago, which was incredible!"

Unlike the amazing guys in the convoy, Ye Tian felt something different when he looked at the magnificent Parthenon on the top of the Acropolis Mountain!

This ancient Greek temple, regarded as a symbol of Western culture, has its most praised and shocking sculpture art from Phedias, the leader of the three major sculptors of ancient Greece. It is one of his most famous representative works.

The Temple of Pat was built to celebrate Athens' victory over the Persian invaders. It is worshipped as the patron god of the ancient city of Athens, goddess of wisdom, art and war, and goddess Athena.

The name of the city of Athens comes from its patron saint.

The statue of the goddess Athena, once worshipped here, was written by the master of engraving art, Phidias, and is a famous representative work of his.

It was a statue of Athena inlaid with gold and ivory, about twelve meters high and was the largest statue of Athena in ancient Greece at that time.

In addition to this statue of Athena, in this ancient city of Athens, there are two other statues of Athena from Phidias.

One is located in the Constitution Square, with a statue of the god nine meters high; the other is located on the pillar at the gate of the Acropolis, with a height of about seven meters, and is all the top works of art.

Unfortunately, these statues of the goddess Athena have disappeared in the long river of history and are nowhere to be found.

Not only these statues of Athena, but also other sculptures by the master artist Phidias, have absolutely been mostly gone and have not been passed down, and only exist in legends.

The only sculpture handed down by Phidias and widely known is the carvings on the Parthenon.

It is these carving works on the Parthenon, these most perfect specimens of classical carvings, that established the position of the three major sculptors of ancient Greece, and is indisputable.

Everyone thinks that except for these classical reliefs on the Parthenon, the independent individual sculptures of Phedias no longer exist.

But who would have thought that Ye Tian had a statue of Athena from Phidias, which had pieced together nearly 70% of the statue of Athena.

Once this statue of Athena is pieced together, even if it is not completed, it will be announced to my grandfather that this is the work of the ancient Greek sculpture god Phidias, and it is the statue of Athena created by him.

By then, what kind of scenes will appear and what a huge sensational effect will be caused. Even people like Ye Tian who have seen and handled countless top antique artworks dare not imagine it.

In front of this statue of Athena of Phidias, the two treasures of the Louvre, "Venus of Milo" and "Story of Victory" are not enough to watch, and they are of far worth!

There is no doubt that once this statue of Athena of Phidias is made public, it will surely shock the whole world and cause countless people to go crazy about it.

Especially the Greeks, Athenians, and even all Westerners, they may go to the saint like a tide and worship under this statue of god!

The Parthenon, which symbolizes Western culture, stands on the top of the Acropolis of Athens, but the only statue of Athena in the world that is supposed to be worshipped in the Parthenon is displayed in its own museum!

When Ye Tian thought of this, he felt relieved all over and was so excited that he wanted to cheer in his voice. He felt so happy!

It didn't take long before the convoy arrived at the booked hotel.

This is a five-star hotel located at the foot of the Acropolis of Athens. It is close to the Acropolis of Athens. It takes less than five minutes to walk there and less than one hundred meters away from the Acropolis of Athens.

Staying in this hotel, opening the window or even lying on the bed, you can see the magnificent but quaint and solemn Parthenon, with the wonderful scenery.

It is precisely because of the scenery here and the unique geographical location that Ye Tiancai booked this five-star hotel and included two-story rooms as their residence in Athens.

In this way, everyone can enjoy the most beautiful scenery of the city of Athens during the days before and after going out to sea to explore the treasures of ancient Roman shipwrecks, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone!

The arrival of Ye Tian and others made the Athens police and hotels very nervous, and also raised the security level of this five-star hotel to the highest level.

At and around this five-star hotel, Greek police cars with flashing police lights, and fully armed Greek police officers can be seen everywhere, as if they are facing a great enemy.

The hotel security personnel also cheered up their spirits, staring at the fleet that had just arrived, staring at everyone in the fleet, and never dared to relax for a moment.

Fortunately, nothing happened, and Ye Tian and his group successfully completed the check-in procedures.

Next, Ye Tian was kind to the Greek friends who accompanied him to the hotel and the diplomats at the US Embassy, ​​and shook hands and said goodbye to these guys one by one, sending them all away.

Then he took David and Jason upstairs to his own presidential suite.

Entering the room, putting down what was in his hand and taking off his coat, Ye Tian immediately said to Jason:

"Jason, go and notify everyone that you can move freely in the next two days, rest well, adjust the time difference, and go out to visit and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Athens, but be sure to pay attention to safety.

In Europe, we have many enemies. Because of this exploration, we are jealous of many people. If you go out for a tour, you must go together and have security personnel to accompany you.

Two days later, we will take Yang Fan out to explore the treasures of ancient Roman shipwrecks and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Mediterranean. After the exploration operation is over, I will set aside time for everyone to enjoy life!”

"Okay, Steven, I'll notify you now."

Jason responded, then turned around and left the presidential suite.

Next, Ye Tian explained some things to Mattis and David. The two guys also left one after another, went busy, and then went back to their rooms to rest.

When they all left, Ye Tian first glanced at the Parthenon, which was close to the top of the Acropolis of Athens, and then began to look at the presidential suite where he lived.

When he admired this exquisite and elegant presidential suite, he also secretly turned on the perspective and completely looked through the presidential suite without missing a corner.

He also thoroughly looked through the upstairs and downstairs of this presidential suite to prevent anyone from making trouble, monitoring or conspiring to himself.

In fact, Matisse and his team who were in front of the station have thoroughly investigated the place and arranged a lot of anti-surveillance monitoring equipment and monitoring equipment to keep the place safe!

After confirming that there were no safety hazards, Ye Tian ended his perspective, withdrew his gaze, and then walked into the bedroom.
Chapter completed!
