Bütün yollar romaya cikar ha :-) Carpici bir baslik bulmussun. :-) AMa bunu dikey alsaydin ve sadece taslari kadrajlasaydin daha da carpici hale gelebilirdi.. Basarili siyahbeyaz ve kontrasti dengeli...Bu arada sagol.

actually levent this specific path does not lead you to Rome; it looks towards south from the point you have taken the photo and after the curve it gets you right infront of the athenian akropolis. this path is part of the landscaping of the akropolis hill and the hill of fillopappou right across and is the work of one of greece's most celebrated architects in the 20th century. His name is Dimitri Pikionis, he did the work between 1954 and 1957 and this specific work has been since an inspiration for many artists and architects and undeniably another site to see and experience while ascending for the akropolis. As for your "Rome" comment, Romans got here, Athens that is, but unfortunately they didn't get it! they copied the rhythms of the collumns and the statues but they didn't understand the scale and the play with the horizon and the axis; part of these is the idea of the path that serves as a medium not only to go from one place to another, but also to stop and have open views and vistas of something specific that allows you to understand the basic idea of the place you are visiting; In this case that is the akropolis, momument to the athenian democracy; and romans have nothing to do with democracy during the years that all ways, streets and paths lead to Rome.
