Ravages spanning throughout years of foreign occupation, loots by foreign archaeologists, failed renovations, millions of visitors throughout the years, earthquakes, fires, pollution and much more have taken its toll on the integrity and appearance of the Acropolis. However, its sheer tenacity as a structure has allowed the Acropolis to stand strong throughout the millennia to present day. Standing proud like a protective goddess over Athens and visible from almost everywhere in the city, the white Pentelic marble of the Acropolis brilliantly glows, regardless of the time of day.
  • Temple of Olympian Zeus: Pillaged and plundered are only some examples of the terrible misfortune that the Temple of Olympian Zeus suffered from. However, in true testament to its name and its purpose, the Temple has stood strong and proud to present day. Built in honor of the King of the Olympian Gods, Zeus, the temple’s construction started in 6th century BC and wasn’t completed until 2nd century AD. Originally housing 104 colossal columns, one of the largest cult statues in the ancient world and touted as the largest temple in Greece, the integrity of the temple slowly depleted throughout the millennia. Currently, the temple houses 16 of the original columns but still maintains its original grand magnificence. Take a step back into the past and soak in the beauty and majesty of one of the most important archaeological sites in Greece.
  • National Archaeological Museum: If you happen to be a budding archaeologist, then you will absolutely love the National Archaeological Museum.

Whether you pop in to hear a lecture, visit an exhibition, or tour around the 118-year old library, the National Archaeological Museum will doubtlessly ensure that you will learn something new.
