Not the most thrilling pictures, or even great quality, but I just wanted to capture how this small Greek Orthodox church built 1000 years ago has been preserved and built over by the modern sprawl that is Athens, Greece.

    Love it Brook! How nice that someone built around it instead of destroying it! :)

    How beautiful is that? It's amazing that they built around it like that, not many places would.

    It does look dainty compared to its surroundings. I'm so glad it was preserved.

    Love this photo - preserving something old in amongst the modern buildings - it looks like the modern buildings are sheltering it.

    What an interesting little place. It's pretty great that they didn't tear it down before building!!
