Odeon of Herodes Atticus. A view from Acropolis.
The Odeon of Herodes Atticus is an ancient open-air amphitheater, at the foot of the Acropolis. The 5,000 seat theatre, specially designed for musical and dramatic performances in 161 AD, was commissioned by the wealthy Roman benefactor, Herodes Atticus, in memory of his late wife. Decorated in marble and monumental in size, it has served as a vital part of Greek culture since ancient times when musicians, dancers, dramatists and poets performed in festivals for the favor of the gods.

Impressive POV but not so good for colors and lighting. Good try althought.
