The Parthenon, 5th Century B.C.
The ancient world's most famous
temple crowns the Acropolis and
dominates the skyline of Athens.
The Parthenon continues to thrill
visitors today, just as it did
in the time of Pericles. |

Look closely and you can see that
the great marble columns are actually
made of individual sections. |

The Acropolis
Viewed from Lycabettus Hill, the
Acropolis looks much as it must
have 2,000 years ago. |
