Yes, I agree. Those streets seem very "un-city". I saw it briefly (the
Acropolis, that is), from the Airport during a late night stopover. They
didn't have floodlights in ancient Greek times but it must have looked quite
impressive from below on a bright moonlit night.

Lovely images, Rick.
The acropolis is one of the true gems of Western civilization, and you have
portrayed it quite well. The Plaka, at the base of the Acropolis, is a
charming neighborhood, much more enjoyable than the modern sections of
Athens, which are so beset by graffiti and urban decay.

A colleague and I took the half-hour uphill walk from the hotel to the top
of the Acropolis. The narrow streets (?) are lined with restaurants and
cafes.
