Mojunt Olympus - Dion - Alexander the Great\'s training ground.

I have added some photographs of the City of Dion, Mount Olympus, from whence Alexander the Great set out on his successful campaign to conquer the world. Inspired by the Gods of Olympus and wishing to avenge the frequent raids on Greek territory by the Persians, he led one of the most highly trained and efective armies ever to have fought. Their training ground was on the mountain slopes near where I live, and the Greek tank regiment still trains there today.
