Dating back to the 15th century, Tentura is a liqueur produced in Patras, Greece. The dark orange-red shaded liquor contains alcohol. It derives its aroma and color from the essence of cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg, and citrus fruits.
In a merging of history, mythology, and art the story of the Minotaur originates on Crete. The labyrinth below the Palace of Knossos is home to the half man and half bull. When Poseidon sent King Minos a snow-white bull to sacrifice, King Minos decided to keep the bull. In his anger Poseidon made the queen fall in love with the bull. Her offspring is the Minotaur. Left to lurk below the palace waiting to attack victims. Legend has it no one left alive.
What does 48 hours in Seattle (before heading out on an Alaskan cruise) look like? Well, lots of breweries, a few bars, a few tourist attractions and lots of fun!
Your venture back in time begins as you strolls the same paths walked by Marc Antony and Cleopatra. As you walk deeper into the Roman city, you begin to see the more well-preserved shop fronts, brothel, and bath.
At the end of the path looms the Library of Celsus. It is hard not to be immediately distracted by the beautiful structure. Walking the path stop to view the mosaic floors of the shops and take in the fact that you are walking in history. A history shared by The Virgin Mary (whose birthplace is nearby), Saint John and Saint Paul. The buildings are so well-preserved that you will see life as it was in our earliest civilization.
