Races were held here since some 2400 years; Panathinaiko stadium is unique in the world in that it is entirely made of marble - with a view of the icon of Greece, the Parthenon.
The stadium is also called Kallimarmaron - beautiful marble. The marble was taken from the same quarry as the marble used for the Parthenon. Another feature that distinguishes this stadium from modern ones, is that one side of it is open: it is U-shaped, like a paper clip. It enables you to fully appreciate the size of the stadium. As you approach Panathinaiko Stadium, it is clear that the clever Greeks found a perfect place for it: between two low hills on either side, the Kallimarmaron fitted perfectly in a natural surrounding. It does not only function as a stadium - with the annual arrival of the Athens Marathon, and the archery discipline and finish of the marathon of the Athens 2004 Olympic Games. The Greeks also use it to honour their sport heroes: the Greek national football team was received here after winning the 2004 European Championship. Furthermore, the classic stadium is featured on Olympic medals starting those of 2004.
