Panathenaic Stadium Visit

The only stadium in the world built entirely of marble — host of the first modern Olympic Games in 1896 and still used for the Olympic torch handover ceremony. Run a lap on the ancient track.

Panathenaic Stadium (Kallimarmaro)

Built in 329 BC, rebuilt in Pentelic marble for the 1896 Olympics — the only stadium in the world made entirely of white marble. Stand at the starting line of the first modern Olympic marathon and consider the ambition of that project.
