Rutt

1. Our tour could start with nothing else but with the greatest achievement of the ancient culture of Greece, the Acropolis. Going through the Propylaea, the monumental gate of Acropolis, we get to the possibly greatest architectural monument that has ever been constructed, the Parthenon. It’s a temple built in the 5th century BC by the architects Iktinos and Kallikratis and dedicated to the goddess Athina.

2. We’ll then visit the Acropolis Museum, one of the globally greatest museums, with considerable awards. It opened to the public in 2009 and exhibits all the findings of the Sacred Rock of Acropolis. It’s a nice opportunity to have a stop for a coffee at the Museum’s cafe to enjoy the view of Acropolis.

3. Our next site is the Temple of Olympian Zeus, which is made of the high-quality Pentelic marble. Its founding began by Pisistratus but it was finally completed by Andrianos in approximately 131 AD, who dedicated the temple to Zeus.

About Aten

Aten reser Akropolis över en vidsträckt modern huvudstad där antika ruiner, gränder i sluttningarna och långa kvällar på taverna ligger sida vid sida.

Parthenon kröner Akropolis, flankerat av Erechtheion med sin veranda av karyatider, och Akropolismuseet vid kullens fot visar skulpturer som hittats på klippan. Runt omkring gör Antika agoran, Olympieion, Hadrianus båge och marmorstadion Panathinaiko den klassiska staden lätt att gå genom.
