THE “BACK TO NATURE”:

The one who thinks city life is unhealthy and outdated, but if you sent him to the countryside, he is scared of the flies!

THE PUBLIC TRANSPORT GUY:

He respects the nature; he prefers to spend 3 hours per day in public transportation than take his car. Afraid of pollution, afraid of traffic, he knows the row of metro stations and bus lines by heart!

THE “LIKE ATHENS, NOWHERE”:

The real Athenian, the child of the city and its center, he even worships the trash on the pavements and snobs every other European city

THE CAR LOVER:

He goes everywhere by car, parks illegally, ignores traffic and anti-pollution settings of the center and has no idea of the city’s public transport.

THE LAWYER:

The most common profession in Greece is the lawyer. Always struggling with the Greek bureaucracy, you will see him with a portfolio, chasing papers drawn by the wind, making the route office - courts 20 times a day.

THE “PROTEST” GUY:

As protests have become a habit in Athens, this guy will participate to every one of them. No matter the subject. Where you will find him? In Syntagma Square.

THE COFFEE GUY:

Here in Greece, the coffee time can last forever. Don’t be surprised if you see the same person in a cafeteria from morning till night. He has nothing to do so he starts with coffee, ends with beer. Usually, he plays “tavli” MEANS (BACKGAMMON) for hours.

10 TYPES OF ATHENIANS

THE GPS:

He knows every street in Athens by name, always ready to explain where to go, even if you are in the Center and you want to go to the beach. You will make his day if you approach him with a map!

THE UNDERGRADUATE STUDENT:

Always happy, with many books in the bag, he goes to the university, but then you will see him in cafes and bar studying or chatting. He can do anything except for one thing: return home.

THE GREEK LOVER:

Famous all around the world, the Greek lover makes his appearance especially in Thissio and Monastiraki. Most of the times he is flirting in (bad) English language and is annoying. Sometimes, he is a good guy and maybe you will find true love!

EXHIBITION EUREKA: SCIENCE, ART & TECHNOLOGY OF ANCIENT GREEKS IN HERAKLEIDON MUSEUM

The Herakleidon Museum, which has been described by the press as “the small - big miracle”, invites you to get acquainted with Ancient Greek Technology - a relatively unknown aspect of ancient Greek culture – in a short distance from the Acropolis of Athens.

The exhibition “EUREKA, Science, Art and Technology of the Ancient Greeks” is hosted in two beautiful urban buildings of the 19th century, in the middle of the route from the Acropolis to the Ancient Agora. The visitor can learn about the method of building the temples of the Acropolis, about the construction technology of the Ancient Theater, about unknown large works that are milestones in the course of the construction, such as the Eupaline Trench or the diolkos. You can see how the Antikythera mechanism worked, to admire the first robot in history, to travel to the time of the Persian wars and the trireme, but also to the first wonders of technology, the time before history, almost 4,000 years before our time.

Guided tours are available throughout the summer free of charge at the entrance fee, and upon request and appointment, family or group activities can be organized which may include exhibition-related board games or patterned canvas painting.

* All measures are in place to prevent the spread of Covid-19: mandatory mask use, sampling thermometry, up to 8 people at the same time, frequent disinfection of premises, hand sanitizers everywhere, electronic transactions, possibility of online bookings and payments.

* Hrekleidon Museum is located at 37, str. Apostolou Pavlou and 16, str. Iraklidon. It is open Wednesday to Sunday from 10:00 to 18:00. For more information or group activities, you can call at +30 210 3461981 ή send an email: info@herakleidon.org
