AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
AirVuz contributor and pilot Moses B. created this marvelous drone video of the Temple of Poseidon, one of the ancient ruins of Greece. It's located at the tip of Cape Sounion, a promontory at the far end of the Attic Peninsula of Central Greece. The temple was built in the mid-fifth century BC, replacing an earlier temple at the site which was destroyed during a Persian invasion of Greece which occurred earlier in the century. Construction occurred during the time that Athens was ruled by Pericles.
