We went on the most amazing tour to Ancient Olympia. This is where the first olympics were started and held back in the Roman times. This place was hit by a very large earthquake making a lot of the things not standing today. But what is still standing is incredible!!
This is Olympia main arena. This use to be surrounded by ancient roman seats surrounding this field. They actually help the shot put event in this very arena in the 2004 summer olypics. It is very cool that they are still using what they can of this historical site!!

These are some of the statues that they were able to preserve and put into the olympia museum. These used to be surrounding the olympic grounds.
This totally puts into perspective how tall these columns are and how amazing to think that they built things like this many many centuries ago.
Can you find me?
