Spring and fairy tales always tell the truth\, Everything around us is blooming and the myrtle scents the air. Every word is beautiful with a lovely company. Come sit beside us\, and fall in love with stories! Come join us for tales under the blue Attic sky\, where the light and the scents of spring fill the air and reach everywhere!”.\n\nNarration: Georgina Kosta\nMusic: Giannis Psariotis

SUMMARY:The City of the Future: From the Acropolis to Dubai and Back Again
DESCRIPTION:This activity is only available in Greek.\nWhat did ancient Greek cities look like? And could they have had technologies that echo what we use today? \nThis interactive journey retraces the steps of Heron and Archimedes\, uncovering how ancient Greeks pioneered “green” technologies that served their society and improved urban life. From clever mechanics to sustainable systems\, it’s a story of timeless innovation. \nStarting at the Acropolis and passing through Alexandria\, London\, Singapore and Dubai\, we’ll explore how today’s “city of the future” may have roots in ancient inventions.
