Took off from Athens and found this well known historical sight. Put my Cessna down at the base of this monument for some Wine and Cheese!!

Can't land there !!  (I do know a few who might try!!)

It is FS2Kdefault scenery. As for an historical site.... I really don't know ,but if MS took the time to design it (since it sticks out like a sore thumb),  I thought it might be something. It really isn't "well known" to me either, but I know I have seen it before! Isn't Greece known for these accomplishments?? I am sure somebody will pop in here and explain it.

Hey Rifleman, I think those columns are looking for YOU!!!!

Dave, you can't land there in a fixed wing, if you turn off the collision detection (like you have to for the Eiffel Tower), you just sink into the rock, otherwise you automatically get a crash as soon as you are within about 20 ft of the buildings!
However I did pop in with a heli or two...
