The NBA legend was also found in Santorini and was photographed in Fira with the volcano in the background
He loves Greece and its islands Magic Johnson and he shows it every summer when he visits our country. THE 67-year-old NBA legend and his wife Bean they are in our country again this year for vacation and after Santorini, they visited the Acropolis, walked in the center of Athens and shared photos and – of course – their experiences on Social Media.
Today I had a life changing experience filled with so much biblical history. We visited the Acropolis of Athens, a fortified citadel located on top of a hill with four Temples. We saw historical landmarks including the Parthenon dedicated to Athena the Virgin in 447 BC, pic.twitter.com/MCaaKArp5S

“Today I had a life changing experience filled with so much biblical history. We visited the Acropolis of Athens, a fortified hilltop citadel with four temples. We saw historical landmarks such as the Parthenon, which was dedicated to Athena Partheno in 447 BC, the Propylaia, the Temple of Athena Nike built in 431 BC, the Erechtheion and the Conservatory of Herod Atticus built in 174 AD. XMagic Johnson wrote in his post.
Many of the original buildings of the Acropolis were destroyed or repurposed. After Rome converted to Christianity in the 6th century AD many Acropolis temples became Christian churches. It was eye-opening to learn about the history of the city & gain so much biblical context! pic.twitter.com/ypepoRYS5n
