Here you can see Philopappos Monument & one of the best views of Acropolis in Athens. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70P4BLxewow Philopappos’ monument is a two-storey structure, supported by a base. On the lower level there is a frieze representing Philopappos as a consul, riding on a chariot and led by lictors.
