2. Walk up the hill leading to the Acropolis significant site and have your camera ready for snapping photos of the Propylaea, the monumental gateway and grand entrance to the Acropolis of Athens.

   10 min

3. Admire and be speechless with the Parthenon, the ancient temple of Athena Parthenos, the virgin goddess of wisdom, war, and the patron deity of Athens. Perched high atop the Acropolis hill, this enduring symbol of Classical Greece and Western civilization has dominated the Athenian skyline for nearly 2,500 years.

4. Then, visit the Erechtheion, a 5th-century BC Ionic temple on the Athenian Acropolis, built between 421-406 BC to replace the ruined "Old Temple" of Athena. It is famous for its unique, asymmetrical design—adapting to uneven ground—and the iconic Caryatids porch.

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.
