We also walked to the representative area of modern Athens city known as the "Neoclassical trilogy" on the main street. These buildings were actually seen on the first day we arrived in Athens, but it was not clear at the time that this was the "Neoclassical trilogy" that was introduced to represent the buildings. Today, it was finally confirmed that the "neoclassical" style of buildings composed of the University of Athens in the middle and the National Library of Athens and the Athens College on both sides were not open to the outside world. We only looked outside, as a basis for the distinction, we saw the outside wall of the University of Athens painted the main Greek gods, many characters colorful paintings beautiful. The athenian academy next to it is a model of the acropolis exterior, with two pillars in front of the door carved with armored Athena and musical instruments, and Plato and Socrates sitting on both sides of the steps below the pillar. Unexpectedly, here is the understanding of the two gods in ancient Greek mythology and the two great men in ancient Greek philosophers. There are many Chinese tour groups here, because there is no need to buy tickets to watch the exterior scene, and there are very few foreign tourists.

    The three buildings in Athens, collectively known as the "Neoclassical Trilogy", are the National Library, the University of Athens and the Athens College. The building in the middle is the University of Athens, and the University of Athens has the main Greek gods on the exterior wall. The University of Athens is lined with the National Library and the Athens College. The National Library contains numerous ancient Greek books and literature. The Athenian Academy was built to mimic the Acropolis, with two pillars outside carved with armored Athena and musical instruments, and under the pillars were Plato and Socrates.

    The Athens Academy of Sciences, the University of Athens and the National Library, which sits side by side on the streets of Athens University, are called the "Neoclassical trilogy" and designed by Danish architect Teofer Hansen. The Athens Academy is the national academy of sciences in Greece, the country's highest research institution. It was founded on March 18, 1926, under the Ministry of Education and Religion. The University of Athens is the oldest and most influential university in Greece, not only the first university in the newly established Greek state, but also the first university in the Balkans and the central Mediterranean region. The National Library of Greece contains 4,500 Greek manuscripts, one of the most preserved locations in Greece. It also houses many documents and archives of the Greek Revolution.

    Athens' famous neoclassical trilogy is the National Library, the University of Athens and the Athens College. Walking along the way, I saw Athena and Cupid and felt like I was in a fairy tale world.
