Panathenaic Stadium

Panathenaic Stadium "Kallimarmaro", Athens - Greece.

Probably the world's oldest and most beautiful stadiums and the only one built entirely of white marble.

The stadium hosted the first modern Olympic Games in 1896. Today, it’s the finishing line of the Athens Marathon.

The underground passage, a long, vaulted gallery, known as "Diodos" used by athletes in antiquity to enter the stadium.
