Description
The film begins with a panoramic view on the outside of the Odeon of Herodes Atticus' main stage wall. A boy holds a balloon, and then the camera turns upwards and shows the south walls of the Acropolis and the Parthenon.

Next shot, from a car moving on Dionysiou Areopagitou Street, we see the southwest side of the monument and the Herodion. Moving shot showing the south side of the Acropolis and the Propylaea in general.

At the entrance of the archeological site we see a canteen and two cars. The area had already been formed in the period 1954-1957 by the architect Dimitris Pikionis, so that it is accessible as a promenade and in harmony with the natural landscape of the hill.

Shot of children climbing the stairs holding balloons. It is the second day of the new year, and the visit is likely to be connected with an excursion during the day off.

The temple of Nike and the western facade of the Parthenon. Many visitors on the stairs of the temple.

The family, from a low shooting angle, greets the camera while the temple's metopes are visible from behind.
In the background we see visitors inside the temple. Visitors pose and take pictures in front of the Erechtheion. The northern side of the area from which we see part of the modern city and finally the tower in the northeast corner with the Greek flag.
