Today the public transport in Athens was on strike so I had to walk to go to work.
Almost next to me, on the sidewalk, the Greco-Roman baths that were uncovered during the construction of the metro came in front of my eyes. The existence of the baths has to do with the promotion of the area with the completion of the temple of Zeus.
I passed outside the Royal Garden where the busts of the three most famous tragic poets of antiquity (Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides) seemed like they were looking after me.
Just inside, the other side of the gates, the statue of Satyrus was looking at me. He was the one, who as a follower of the god Dionysus caused in my mind the morning good mood.
