If I could go anywhere in the world, I would go to Athens, Greece. Why you may ask? I am extremely interested in Greek mythology. And Athens is pretty much the center. I would go to the Parthenon first. The Parthenon is a huge temple dedicated to the Greek Goddess Athena, Goddess of strategy and wisdom. The architexture is amazing. They have a statue about thirty feet high of her. Then I would go down town and see the area where the first Olympics were held.
The Olympics were held in honor of Zeus, God of the Sky and the King of the Olympians. They held it at the foot of Mt. Olympus, where they believed the palace of the gods were at. It was pretty much the center of attention in greece. Instead of medals, champions were crowned with laurels formed from olive trees. The sports were pretty much like today only with horse racing, and Pankration, a type of wrestling with no rules. Only men were allowed to attend. Thats why Id go to greece. plus theres over twohundred kinds of olives there.
this is a nice choice!!!! i would love to come!!! it would be a marvelous adventure!!! :)
