Looks like it's in the middle of nowhere! Very interesting. Wonder what the purpose of building it so far out.

The Arch of Hadrian was constructed in Athens in about 131/132 B.C. It was believed to be constructed to signify the place where new and old Athens were separated. This is speculated because one side of the arch holds the descrption "This is the city of Thesus (Athens)." The other side reads "This is the city of Hardrian, not the of Thesus." It is also believed that this arch could be an tribute to Hardrian, the new founder of all of Athens.

The arch is made of Pentelic marble and consists of Corinthian and ionic features.
