You're standing on Iera Odos, the Sacred Way. Today it's an ordinary road running from central Athens through Aegaleo to Chaidari. But it follows a very old route: the road from Athens to Eleusis. Take a look at the traffic, then picture something completely different. Thousands of people on foot, heading for one of the most secretive festivals of the ancient world.
