The Church of the Holy Apostles (ca 1000) is the only medieval monument that stands in the Ancient Agora of Athens today. The church was restored from 1954-1957. The outer walls are decorated with "kufic" letters (a kind of Arabic writing) while inside some traces of Byzantine wall paintings survive.
Wow! you see some amazing things! It would be so neat to be close to so much biblical history!
