The story

Story · Museum of the Ancient Agora

You're standing at the Stoa of Attalos, on the east side of the ancient Agora of Athens. Take a look at that long colonnade. It's over a hundred and sixteen metres long, two storeys high, with forty-five columns in a row. It looks as if it's been here for two thousand years, but that's only half true.
