This ancient Roman library, today left only a tall stone wall for visitors, besides this is a wasteland of weeds and stones, which makes people feel very sorry, it used to be a local academic center.

    Hadrian Library is also a very interesting place. The library is very rich in introduction. You can understand the history here in advance. The high city wall part can be visited up close. It is also the destruction of the history experienced. There are not many residual parts.

    Hadrian Library of Athens was the largest national library in ancient Greece and has been more than 2,000 years old. In ancient times, such a large library was really incredible, although there are only fragments left, but the scale is really more than the current library, it is really unimaginable.

    The Hadrian Library site in Athens is a place to come. He is the earliest archaeological library in the world so far, and the library has been more than 2,000 years old. It shows how strong and scientific the Roman Empire was at that time. The library covers a large area, and the remaining stone pillars are more than seven meters high, which shows the majesty of the building at that time, and really lament the power of the ancient Roman architecture.

    It’s fine to see if you’re already in Plaka, but there are so many wonderful things to see in Greece so if you have to go out of the way to go there, you’re not missing much.#mytrip #vacation #greece #athens

    The exquisite Hadrian Library, the architectural style of the Hadrian period is easy to identify, the carvings are beautiful, and some structural components are relatively delicate. Visitors like to gather here, one to appreciate beautiful buildings, one to take shelter from the sun and cool. Here, the sun is transparent and hot, and the plastic ability is very strong. It complements these ancient Roman building components, while there is a cool wind in the shadow. ?

    Following the directions of the map and asking passers-by, we quickly reached the site of the Hadrian Library at the foot of the Acropolis Mountains. This scenic spot also uses Acropolis Pass. Apart from several tall stone pillars, the ruins are basically broken walls and ruins. There is an indoor exhibition hall in the scenic area, showing some unearthed cultural relics and the chronology of the library. This library was a product of the Roman Empire. Hadrian was a famous emperor of the Roman Empire and a tourist buddy. Although it is only a remnant of the tall pillars, but the huge scale still shows the momentum of the library. Unexpectedly, in such a distant place, in such a distant era, there are also emperors and elders who practice "traveling thousands of miles to read thousands of books" and are also foreigners. On the ground of a room ruins, there are still colorful tiles. After years of baptism, there is such precipitation. It can be seen that people at that time still attached great importance to the reading environment. Here I met a Chinese uncle from Shandong who came to Greece from California with his wife accompanied by his daughter. The old man himself used tripod to take pictures of himself. He was very busy jumping around. He asked the old man how old he was and how old he was. Such a body is really admirable.
