4. This beautiful ancient temple was originally sanctuary of the deified Theseus, the greatest ancient athenian hero, second only to Hercules greek hero. After the destruction of this temple by the enemies of the city it was rebuilt as temple of Hephaestus, ancient greek god of engineering and mechanics. It was built by the same engineers that after that construction built the great Parthenon and was built as a rehearsal for the greater project. This is why Theseion looks like a miniature of the Parthenon

About Athens

Athens sets the Acropolis above a sprawling modern capital, where ancient ruins, hillside lanes and long taverna evenings sit side by side.

The Parthenon crowns the Acropolis, flanked by the Erechtheion and its porch of caryatids, and the Acropolis Museum at the foot of the hill displays sculpture found on the rock. Around it, the Ancient Agora, the Temple of Olympian Zeus, Hadrian's Arch and the marble Panathenaic Stadium make the classical city easy to walk through.
