This video contains a description of the monumental buildings in the Acropolis. Especially it has very interesting analysis of the proportions and optical refinements of The Parthenon.
This monumental work is a peripteral octostyle Doric temple on the Athenian Acropolis dedicated to the goddess Athena, whom the people of Athens considered their patron.
Its construction began in 447 and was completed in 438 BC although decoration of the building continued until 432 BC.
It is the most important surviving building of Classical Greece, considered the zenith of the Doric order.
The construction of The Parthenon, made almost entirely of white marble from Mount Penteli, was initiated by Pericles in thanks to the gods for his victory against the Persians. The architects in charge of the work were Ictino and Calicrates and were, in most cases, under the direction of the architect and great Athenian sculptor Phidias, author of the sculptural decoration and the great statue of Athena Parthenos which was located as the centerpiece of the temple (measuring forty feet high and for its elaboration 1,200 kg of gold were needed).
More info about travel to Athens: http://www.ricksteves.com/europe/greece/athens Crowned by the mighty Parthenon temple, the Acropolis rises above modern Athens; a lasting testament to Greece's glorious golden age. The Acropolis was the center of ritual and ceremony, and the religious heart of the city. The marketplace at its base is Agora, and was the hub of commercial, political and social life.

A brief history of the Athenian Acropolis from 3500BC-2010AD, through 3d representations.
Many of the dates shown are always open to debate. The same happens with some buildings and especially those of the Pre-Classical Acropolis which we cannot be sure where and when they were built or whether they existed at all.

http://mocomi.com/ presents: Acropolis of Athens - Fun Fact Series EP22!
The Acropolis is one of the most imposing historical structures in Athens.
The word ‘Acropolis’ is derived from the Greek words ‘akron’ meaning edge and ‘polis’ meaning city. It was thus named because it stands on a hilltop that overlooks the city of Athens.
The Acropolis was also known as the sacred rock and was built for defensive reasons. During wartime, the Greeks used it to get a better view of the position of enemy forces.
The construction of the Acropolis started in 447 BC and ended in 438 BC.
The Acropolis served as the venue for festival celebrations and historically significant events during the peak of Athens’ power.
The Greeks built many temples on the Acropolis, such as the famous Parthenon temple dedicated to the Greek goddess Athena.
The first excavations on the Acropolis were conducted between 1835 and 1837.
The first habitation remains on the Acropolis date back to the Neolithic period.
Since the monuments of the Acropolis of Athens were being damaged due to pollution, many of the relics and historical objects were shifted to the newly constructed Acropolis Museum in 2007.
The Acropolis was the runner-up for the New Seven Wonders of the World.

The Acropolis of Athens (Ancient Greek: Ἀκρόπολις; Modern Greek: Ακρόπολη Αθηνών Akrópoli Athinón) is an ancient citadel located on a high rocky outcrop above the city of Athens and contains the remains of several ancient buildings of great architectural and historic significance, the most famous being the Parthenon. The word acropolis comes from the Greek words ἄκρον (akron, "highest point, extremity") and πόλις (polis, "city"). Although there are many other acropoleis in Greece, the significance of the Acropolis of Athens is such that it is commonly known as "The Acropolis" without qualification. While there is evidence that the hill was inhabited as far back as the fourth millennium BC, it was Pericles (c. 495 – 429 BC) in the fifth century BC who coordinated the construction of the site's most important buildings including the Parthenon, the Propylaia, the Erechtheion and the Temple of Athena Nike. The Parthenon and the other buildings were seriously damaged during the 1687 siege by the Venetians in the Morean War when the Parthenon was being used for gunpowder storage and was hit by a cannonball. The Acropolis was formally proclaimed as the pre-eminent monument on the European Cultural Heritage list of monuments on 26 March 2007. Η Ακρόπολη Αθηνών είναι ένας βραχώδης λόφος ύψους 156 μ. από την επιφάνεια της θάλασσας και 70 μ. περίπου από το επίπεδο της πόλης της Αθήνας. Η κορυφή του έχει σχήμα τραπεζοειδές μήκους 300 μ. και μέγιστου πλάτους 150 μ. Ο λόφος είναι απρόσιτος απ’ όλες τις πλευρές εκτός της δυτικής, όπου και βρίσκεται η οχυρή είσοδος, η διακοσμημένη με τα λαμπρά Προπύλαια. Διαπιστώθηκε ότι ο λόφος ήταν κατοικημένος από την 3η χιλιετία π.Χ.. Υπήρχε εκεί συνοικισμός καθώς επρόκειτο για φυσικό οχυρό. με πρόσβαση μόνο από τη δυτική πλευρά, ενώ η επάνω επιφάνεια του λόφου ήταν αρκετά πλατιά ώστε να μπορεί να κατοικηθεί, στις δε πλαγιές υπήρχαν υδάτινες πηγές. Ο Θουκυδίδης μάλιστα γράφει ότι «ἡ Ἀκρόπολις ἡ νῦν οὖσα πόλις ῆν» (2.15.3). Το μέγαρο του τοπικού άρχοντα βρισκόταν στη θέση όπου πολλούς αιώνες αργότερα χτίστηκε το Ερέχθειο. Συν τω χρόνω ο άρχοντας του συνοικισμού της Ακρόπολης απέκτησε μεγάλη δύναμη και κάποια στιγμή ένωσε υπό την εξουσία του με ειρηνικό τρόπο ολόκληρη την Αττική με εξαίρεση την Ελευσίνα. Η παράδοση λέει ότι ο άρχοντας αυτός που ένωσε τους συνοικισμούς της Αττικής ήταν ο Θησέας. Το γεγονός αυτό τοποθετείται στο δεύτερο ήμισυ της δεύτερης προ Χριστού χιλιετίας. Ο κίνδυνος εχθρικών επιδρομών ανάγκασε τον ηγεμόνα αυτό να οχυρώσει την Ακρόπολη με ένα τείχος από μεγάλες πέτρες, το γνωστό αργότερα ως Κυκλώπειο Τείχος. Ο θεσμός της κληρονομικής μοναρχίας καταργήθηκε μετά την αποτυχημένη εισβολή των Δωριέων (11ος αιώνας). Η τάξη των γαιοκτημόνων αναλαμβάνει την εξουσία και επικρατεί το αριστοκρατικό πολίτευμα. Παύει να είναι διοικητικό κέντρο η Ακρόπολη. Η διοίκηση ασκείται από την κάτω πόλη, το άστυ. Ο λόφος της Ακρόπολης χρησιμοποιείται πλέον ως χώρος θρησκευτικών τελετών, αν και έως τον 4ο αιώνα αποκαλείται «πόλις». Εκεί όπου αρχικά βρισκόταν το μέγαρο του άρχοντα των μυκηναϊκών χρόνων ανοικοδομήθηκε τον 8ο αιώνα μικρός ναός αφιερωμένα στην προστάτιδα της πόλης, την Αθηνά Πολιάδα. -

Bonjour à tous ! Voici ma dernière cinématique, cette fois ci sur un thème antique: l'Acropole d'Athènes. J'ai réalisé cette map en un peu plus de 3 mois en respectant les proportions, la disposition et l'échelle de la vrai Acropole. Mon twitter: https://twitter.com/gtofann Pour en savoir plus sur cette map vous pouvez vous rendre sur: http://www.planetminecraft.com/project/the-acropolis-of-athens/ Cette map est un Survival Game pour le serveur Ascentia. ~ Here The Acropolis of Athens, an ancient sanctuary primarily dedicated to the Goddess Athena This map is fully realistic with the real size of the Acropolis. Somes building are missing (stao of Eumenes, sanctuary of Asclepius, sactuary of artemis Brauronia) because of the limits of Minecraft. I only used somes worldedit and voxel brushs to do the landscape (maybe the reason why I took 3 months ^^) You can identify somes similarities about my other landscape because the first one was a test for this map. I added somes dries pines, sandstone, sand to accentuate the Mediterranean climate.

The Acropolis of Athens in ancient Greece - Dimensions and proportions of Parthenon
This video contains a description of the monumental buildings in the Acropolis. Especially it has very interesting analysis of the proportions and optical refinements of The Parthenon. This monumental work is a peripteral octostyle Doric temple on the Athenian Acropolis dedicated to the goddess Athena, whom the people of Athens considered their patron. Its construction began in 447 and was completed in 438 BC although decoration of the building continued until 432 BC. It is the most important surviving building of Classical Greece, considered the zenith of the Doric order. The construction of The Parthenon, made almost entirely of white marble from Mount Penteli, was initiated by Pericles in thanks to the gods for his victory against the Persians. The architects in charge of the work we... -

Acropolis of Athens - Fun Fact Series EP22 | Mocomi Kids
http://mocomi.com/ presents: Acropolis of Athens - Fun Fact Series EP22! The Acropolis is one of the most imposing historical structures in Athens. The word ‘Acropolis’ is derived from the Greek words ‘akron’ meaning edge and ‘polis’ meaning city. It was thus named because it stands on a hilltop that overlooks the city of Athens. The Acropolis was also known as the sacred rock and was built for defensive reasons. During wartime, the Greeks used it to get a better view of the position of enemy forces. The construction of the Acropolis started in 447 BC and ended in 438 BC. The Acropolis served as the venue for festival celebrations and historically significant events during the peak of Athens’ power. The Greeks built many temples on the Acropolis, such as the famous Parthenon temple d... -

The Acropolis of Athens Pathenon night view//Η Ακρόπολη τη νυχτα!
The Acropolis of Athens (Ancient Greek: Ἀκρόπολις; Modern Greek: Ακρόπολη Αθηνών Akrópoli Athinón) is an ancient citadel located on a high rocky outcrop above the city of Athens and contains the remains of several ancient buildings of great architectural and historic significance, the most famous being the Parthenon. The word acropolis comes from the Greek words ἄκρον (akron, "highest point, extremity") and πόλις (polis, "city"). Although there are many other acropoleis in Greece, the significance of the Acropolis of Athens is such that it is commonly known as "The Acropolis" without qualification. While there is evidence that the hill was inhabited as far back as the fourth millennium BC, it was Pericles (c. 495 – 429 BC) in the fifth century BC who coordinated the construction of the si... -

Mike Dawes & Chris Mike - Acropolis of Athens Jam
Behold the Athenian axeman Chris Mike joining a confused Englishman beneath the glorious Temple of Athena, atop the steps of The Odeon of Herodes Atticus for a slightly unrehearsed musical unplugged jam session in Athens, Greece... This was such a memorable experience. Last weekend I visited Athens for a concert and guitar clinic. The people I met were so indescribably kind and hospitable, and during a morning off, the organiser Nikos, Chris (who was opening the show) and I quested to the Acropolis to film something. The site is incredible, and an iPhone video doesn't really do it justice. The Temple and many buildings in the area were constructed after the defeat of the Persians in 479BC. I hope the Greek Gods enjoyed the music. The nasties at security wouldn't let us up to the Temple ... -

This video contains a description of the monumental buildings in the Acropolis. Especially it has very interesting analysis of the proportions and optical refinements of The Parthenon.
This monumental work is a peripteral octostyle Doric temple on the Athenian Acropolis dedicated to the goddess Athena, whom the people of Athens considered their patron.
Its construction began in 447 and was completed in 438 BC although decoration of the building continued until 432 BC.
It is the most important surviving building of Classical Greece, considered the zenith of the Doric order.
The construction of The Parthenon, made almost entirely of white marble from Mount Penteli, was initiated by Pericles in thanks to the gods for his victory against the Persians. The architects in charge of the work were Ictino and Calicrates and were, in most cases, under the direction of the architect and great Athenian sculptor Phidias, author of the sculptural decoration and the great statue of Athena Parthenos which was located as the centerpiece of the temple (measuring forty feet high and for its elaboration 1,200 kg of gold were needed).

Its construction began in 447 BC when the Athenian Empire was at the height of its power. It was completed in 438 BC, although decoration of the building continued until 432 BC. It is the most important surviving building of Classical Greece, generally considered the culmination of the development of the Doric order.

http://mocomi.com/ presents: Acropolis of Athens - Fun Fact Series EP22!
The Acropolis is one of the most imposing historical structures in Athens.
The word ‘Acropolis’ is derived from the Greek words ‘akron’ meaning edge and ‘polis’ meaning city. It was thus named because it stands on a hilltop that overlooks the city of Athens.
The Acropolis was also known as the sacred rock and was built for defensive reasons. During wartime, the Greeks used it to get a better view of the position of enemy forces.
The construction of the Acropolis started in 447 BC and ended in 438 BC.
The Acropolis served as the venue for festival celebrations and historically significant events during the peak of Athens’ power.
The Greeks built many temples on the Acropolis, such as the famous Parthenon temple dedicated to the Greek goddess Athena.
The first excavations on the Acropolis were conducted between 1835 and 1837.
The first habitation remains on the Acropolis date back to the Neolithic period.
Since the monuments of the Acropolis of Athens were being damaged due to pollution, many of the relics and historical objects were shifted to the newly constructed Acropolis Museum in 2007.
The Acropolis was the runner-up for the New Seven Wonders of the World.

The Acropolis of Athens (Ancient Greek: Ἀκρόπολις; Modern Greek: Ακρόπολη Αθηνών Akrópoli Athinón) is an ancient citadel located on a high rocky outcrop above the city of Athens and contains the remains of several ancient buildings of great architectural and historic significance, the most famous being the Parthenon. The word acropolis comes from the Greek words ἄκρον (akron, "highest point, extremity") and πόλις (polis, "city"). Although there are many other acropoleis in Greece, the significance of the Acropolis of Athens is such that it is commonly known as "The Acropolis" without qualification.
While there is evidence that the hill was inhabited as far back as the fourth millennium BC, it was Pericles (c. 495 – 429 BC) in the fifth century BC who coordinated the construction of the site's most important buildings including the Parthenon, the Propylaia, the Erechtheion and the Temple of Athena Nike. The Parthenon and the other buildings were seriously damaged during the 1687 siege by the Venetians in the Morean War when the Parthenon was being used for gunpowder storage and was hit by a cannonball.
The Acropolis was formally proclaimed as the pre-eminent monument on the European Cultural Heritage list of monuments on 26 March 2007.
Η Ακρόπολη Αθηνών είναι ένας βραχώδης λόφος ύψους 156 μ. από την επιφάνεια της θάλασσας και 70 μ. περίπου από το επίπεδο της πόλης της Αθήνας. Η κορυφή του έχει σχήμα τραπεζοειδές μήκους 300 μ. και μέγιστου πλάτους 150 μ. Ο λόφος είναι απρόσιτος απ’ όλες τις πλευρές εκτός της δυτικής, όπου και βρίσκεται η οχυρή είσοδος, η διακοσμημένη με τα λαμπρά Προπύλαια.
Διαπιστώθηκε ότι ο λόφος ήταν κατοικημένος από την 3η χιλιετία π.Χ.. Υπήρχε εκεί συνοικισμός καθώς επρόκειτο για φυσικό οχυρό. με πρόσβαση μόνο από τη δυτική πλευρά, ενώ η επάνω επιφάνεια του λόφου ήταν αρκετά πλατιά ώστε να μπορεί να κατοικηθεί, στις δε πλαγιές υπήρχαν υδάτινες πηγές. Ο Θουκυδίδης μάλιστα γράφει ότι «ἡ Ἀκρόπολις ἡ νῦν οὖσα πόλις ῆν» (2.15.3). Το μέγαρο του τοπικού άρχοντα βρισκόταν στη θέση όπου πολλούς αιώνες αργότερα χτίστηκε το Ερέχθειο. Συν τω χρόνω ο άρχοντας του συνοικισμού της Ακρόπολης απέκτησε μεγάλη δύναμη και κάποια στιγμή ένωσε υπό την εξουσία του με ειρηνικό τρόπο ολόκληρη την Αττική με εξαίρεση την Ελευσίνα. Η παράδοση λέει ότι ο άρχοντας αυτός που ένωσε τους συνοικισμούς της Αττικής ήταν ο Θησέας. Το γεγονός αυτό τοποθετείται στο δεύτερο ήμισυ της δεύτερης προ Χριστού χιλιετίας. Ο κίνδυνος εχθρικών επιδρομών ανάγκασε τον ηγεμόνα αυτό να οχυρώσει την Ακρόπολη με ένα τείχος από μεγάλες πέτρες, το γνωστό αργότερα ως Κυκλώπειο Τείχος.
Ο θεσμός της κληρονομικής μοναρχίας καταργήθηκε μετά την αποτυχημένη εισβολή των Δωριέων (11ος αιώνας). Η τάξη των γαιοκτημόνων αναλαμβάνει την εξουσία και επικρατεί το αριστοκρατικό πολίτευμα. Παύει να είναι διοικητικό κέντρο η Ακρόπολη. Η διοίκηση ασκείται από την κάτω πόλη, το άστυ. Ο λόφος της Ακρόπολης χρησιμοποιείται πλέον ως χώρος θρησκευτικών τελετών, αν και έως τον 4ο αιώνα αποκαλείται «πόλις». Εκεί όπου αρχικά βρισκόταν το μέγαρο του άρχοντα των μυκηναϊκών χρόνων ανοικοδομήθηκε τον 8ο αιώνα μικρός ναός αφιερωμένα στην προστάτιδα της πόλης, την Αθηνά Πολιάδα.

Here The Acropolis of Athens, an ancient sanctuary primarily dedicated to the Goddess Athena
This map is fully realistic with the real size of the Acropolis. Somes building are missing (stao of Eumenes, sanctuary of Asclepius, sactuary of artemis Brauronia)
because of the limits of Minecraft.
I only used somes worldedit and voxel brushs to do the landscape (maybe the reason why I took 3 months ^^)
You can identify somes similarities about my other landscape because the first one was a test for this map.
I added somes dries pines, sandstone, sand to accentuate the Mediterranean climate.

Behold the Athenian axeman Chris Mike joining a confused Englishman beneath the glorious Temple of Athena, atop the steps of The Odeon of Herodes Atticus for a slightly unrehearsed musical unplugged jam session in Athens, Greece...
This was such a memorable experience. Last weekend I visited Athens for a concert and guitar clinic. The people I met were so indescribably kind and hospitable, and during a morning off, the organiser Nikos, Chris (who was opening the show) and I quested to the Acropolis to film something.
The site is incredible, and an iPhone video doesn't really do it justice. The Temple and many buildings in the area were constructed after the defeat of the Persians in 479BC. I hope the Greek Gods enjoyed the music.
The nasties at security wouldn't let us up to the Temple with our guitars, so we shot this video outside this incredible ancient Odeon on the hill. You can see the Temple of Athena in the background. For a closer look at the location (again, an iPhone cannot portray the magnificence of the buildings there) check out the link below...

Акро́поль (др.-греч. ἀκρόπολις — верхний город) — возвышенная и укреплённая часть
древнегреческого города, так называемый верхний город; крепость (убежище на случай войны).
Афи́нский акро́поль (греч. Ακρόπολη Αθηνών) — акрополь в городе Афины, представляющий собой 156-метровый скалистый холм с пологой вершиной. Акрополь также называют «Кекропия» в честь основателя Акрополя - первого царя Афин Кекропса.
.
В VII—VI вв. до н. э. в Акрополе велось большое строительство. При тиране Писистрате(560—527 гг. до н. э.) на месте царского дворца был построен храм богини Афины Гекатомпедон (то есть храм длиною в сто шагов; сохранились фрагменты скульптур фронтонов, выявлен фундамент).
В 480 году до н. э. во время греко-персидских войн храмы Акрополя были разрушены персами. Жители Афин дали клятву восстановить святыни только после изгнания врагов из Эллады.
В 447 году до н. э. по инициативе Перикла на Акрополе началось новое строительство. Руководство всеми работами было поручено знаменитому скульптору Фидию, который, видимо и явился автором проекта, лёгшего в основу всего комплекса, его архитектурного и скульптурного облика.
В V веке Парфенон стал церковью Богоматери, статуя Афины Парфенос была перевезена в Константинополь.
В XV веке после завоевания Греции турками храм превратили в мечеть, к которой пристроили минареты, затем — в арсенал. Эрехтейон стал гаремом турецкого паши, храм Ники Аптерос был разобран, из его блоков сложена стена бастиона.
В 1687 году после попадания ядра с венецианского корабля взрыв уничтожил почти всю центральную часть храма Афины — Девы, при неудачной попытке венецианцев снять скульптуры Парфенона несколько статуй были разбиты.
В начале XIX века английский лорд Элгин выломал ряд метоп, десятки метров фриза и почти все сохранившиеся скульптуры фронтонов Парфенона, кариатиду — из портика Эрехтейона.
В 1827 году во время обороны Акрополя греческими повстанцами от турецкого пушечного ядра сильно пострадал храм Эрехтейон.
После провозглашения независимости Греции в ходе реставрационных работ (в основном в кон. XIX века) по возможности был восстановлен древний облик Акрополя: ликвидирована вся поздняя застройка на его территории, заново выложен храм Ники Аптерос и т. п. Рельефы и скульптуры храмов Акрополя находятся в Британском музее (Лондон), в Лувре (Париж) и Музее Акрополя. Остававшиеся под открытым небом скульптуры сейчас заменены копиями.

В 447 году до н. э. по инициативе Перикла на Акрополе началось новое строительство. Руководство всеми работами было поручено знаменитому скульптору Фидию, который, видимо и явился автором проекта, лёгшего в основу всего комплекса, его архитектурного и скульптурного облика.
В V веке Парфенон стал церковью Богоматери, статуя Афины Парфенос была перевезена в Константинополь.
В XV веке после завоевания Греции турками храм превратили в мечеть, к которой пристроили минареты, затем — в арсенал. Эрехтейон стал гаремом турецкого паши, храм Ники Аптерос был разобран, из его блоков сложена стена бастиона.
В 1687 году после попадания ядра с венецианского корабля взрыв уничтожил почти всю центральную часть храма Афины — Девы, при неудачной попытке венецианцев снять скульптуры Парфенона несколько статуй были разбиты.
В начале XIX века английский лорд Элгин выломал ряд метоп, десятки метров фриза и почти все сохранившиеся скульптуры фронтонов Парфенона, кариатиду — из портика Эрехтейона.
В 1827 году во время обороны Акрополя греческими повстанцами от турецкого пушечного ядра сильно пострадал храм Эрехтейон.
После провозглашения независимости Греции в ходе реставрационных работ (в основном в кон. XIX века) по возможности был восстановлен древний облик Акрополя: ликвидирована вся поздняя застройка на его территории, заново выложен храм Ники Аптерос и т. п. Рельефы и скульптуры храмов Акрополя находятся в Британском музее (Лондон), в Лувре (Париж) и Музее Акрополя. Остававшиеся под открытым небом скульптуры сейчас заменены копиями.

(F)L'Acropole d'Athènes (en grec ἀκρόπολις τῶν Ἀθηνῶν) est un plateau rocheux (acropole) élevé au centre d'Athènes.
Pendant l'Antiquité, elle fait office de vaste sanctuaire pour le culte de la déesse Athéna et de nombreux autres dieux de la mythologie grecque, avec plusieurs temples dont le Parthénon, l'Érechthéion, le temple d'Athéna Niké. Les autres monuments remarquables encore existants sont les Propylées, le théâtre antique de Dionysos, l'odéon d'Hérode Atticus.

También es conocida como Cecropia en honor del legendario hombre-serpiente, Cécrope, el primer rey ateniense.2
La entrada a la Acrópolis se realiza por una gran puerta llamada los Propileos. A su lado derecho y frontal se encuentra el Templo de Atenea Niké. Una gran estatua de bronce de Atenea, realizada por Fidias, se encontraba originariamente en el centro. A la derecha de donde se erigía esta escultura se encuentra el Partenón o Templo de Atenea Partenos (la Virgen). A la izquierda y al final de la Acrópolis está el Erecteión, con su célebre stoa o tribuna sostenida por seis cariátides. En la ladera sur de la Acrópolis se encuentran los restos de otros edificios entre los que destaca un teatro al aire libre llamado Teatro de Dioniso, donde estrenaron sus obras Sófocles, Aristófanes y Esquilo.3
La mayoría de los grandes templos fueron reconstruidos bajo el liderazgo de Pericles durante la Edad Dorada de Atenas (460-430 a. C.). Durante el siglo V a. C., la Acrópolis adoptó su forma definitiva.

Acropolis Of Athens - Visual Guide By Travel & Discover
The Acropolis of Athens is an ancient citadel located on a high rocky outcrop above the city of Athens and contains the remains of several ancient buildings of great architectural and historic significance, the most famous being the Parthenon.

Greece Vacation Travel Video Guide • Great Destinations
Greece is the cradle of the European civilization, a quarry of mythology and ancient relics. On the Chalkidiki Peninsula we can visit the city of Thessalonica, the beaches of Katerini and Paralia, and from the boat we can take a look at the mystical monastery republic, Athos. Near the legendary Olympus Mountain we can take a look at the ‘rocks of gods’, the Meteora monasteries built on the sky-high cliffs. Athens’s well known building is the Acropolis, which is garlanded by the golden pillars of the Parthenon. The Agora was the marketplace of the ancient Athens, while the Plaka is a current, full of life eastern bazaar. From the capital the visitors can take journeys to the canal of Corinth and to the beaches of the Attican Riviera. From the dock of Pireus it is easy to take a boat and vis... -

Athens (Greek: Αθήνα, Athína - Ἀθῆναι)
20 Things to do in Athens Greece Top Attractions Travel Guide Transcript:
Well, good afternoon from sunny Athens. We are currently exploring the Greek capital. We recently actually spent a few days traveling around Meteora and now we're finishing up our trip here in Athens. We've got two full days to explore the city which isn't a lot of time but we're going to try to do our best. So let's get ready and start exploring.
Our first stop was one of the most recognized sights in Athens - the Parthenon, which was dedicated to the goddess Athena who was seen as the patron of Athens.
After sunset we lingered atop Mount Lycabettus for some night views of the city before taking the funicular down to the bottom. Seeing the Acropolis all lit up at night was a pretty cool sight!
Next up we visited the Temple of Zeus which once housed the statue of Zeus, and was considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
When it comes to shopping, there are a few different options. We made our way to Monastiraki, which is one of the principal shopping districts in Athens. Here we visited both the Flea Market and the antique shops in the area.
The Agora was the central spot in ancient Greek city-states, and it is where people gathered.
So we are wrapping up our time here in Athens. Any surprises or final thoughts to share? Yeah, something that really surprised me were just the amount of stray animals that I saw on the streets. Lots of cats and dogs.
I also thought there was really good dining options as well. We had a number of really good Greek meals and also some really good International food too.
Final thoughts, I think this is a really underrated capital in Europe. A lot like Warsaw in Poland so if you have an opportunity to visit Athens in Greece definitely do so.
So what did you think of Athens? Well, I thought it was a really cool city and I actually had a great time here. It kind of reminded me a little bit of Tel Aviv with the Mediterranean feel but also Berlin because it is very artsy and gritty. So it's a really cool place to check out. Great food, lots of attractions. You have a mix of antiquity with urban. So it's really fun and it is unlike any place I've been before, so I would highly recommend it.
And that's a wrap for Athens! We hope you enjoyed this city guide and that it'll come in handy when you plan your own trip. If you have any more suggestions of activities that travelers shouldn't miss, feel free to share those in the comments below.
This is part of our Travel in Greece series. We're making a series of videos showcasing Greek culture, Greek arts, Greek foods, Greek religion, Greek cuisine and Greek people.

Whoever visits the Greek capital, takes a pilgrimage to the fountain of European culture. The city’s most famous building is the Citadel 150 meters above sea level, the Acropolis, which is garlanded by the golden pillars of the Parthenon. The statues, reliefs and frieses of Acropolis Museum and the Archeological Museum of Athens show us the classical beauty ideal and the perfect sense of proportion. The Agora tells us about the life of ancient Athens, while the Plaka with its narrow roads introduces us to a vivid, Eastern bazaar. In front of the parlament, funnily dressed guards give guard of honor. The city can be best seen from the Likavitos mountain, and the sunset is also the most beautiful from here. From Athens we can take a trip to the port of Pireus, to the monument of the battle at Marathon, to the ruins of the sacred area of Eleusis, to the Korinthos canal, and to the sunny holiday resorts of the Attican Riviera.

Athens Travel Guide - Athens is the capital city of Greece with a metropolitan population of 3.7 million inhabitants. It is in many ways the birthplace of Classical Greece, and therefore of Western civilization.
The sprawling city is bounded on three sides by Mt Ymettos, Mt Parnitha and Mt Pendeli; whilst inside Athens are twelve hills [the seven historical are: Acropolis, Areopagus, Hill of Philopappus, Observatory Hill (Muses Hill), Pnyx, Lykavittos (Lycabettus), Tourkovounia (Anchesmus)], the Acropolis and Lykavittos being the most prominent. These hills provide a refuge from the noise and commotion of the crowded city streets, offering amazing views down to Saronic Gulf, Athens' boundary with the Aegean Sea on its southern side. The streets of Athens (clearly signposted in Greek and English) now meld imperceptibly into Piraeus, the city's ancient (and still bustling) port.Omega is not considered to be part of the greek alphabet because of its saminess
Places of interest to travellers can be found within a relatively small area surrounding the city centre at Syntagma Square (Plateia Syntagmatos). This epicentre is surrounded by the districts of the Plaka to the south, Monastiraki and Thissio to the west, Kolonaki to the northeast and Omonia to the northwest.

Travel video about destination Athens in Greece.
Athens is a lively city set in historic surroundings.Likavittós is a two hundred and seventy-seven metre high limestone rock that dominates the city. It towers up above several buildings and on its summit there’s a small chapel. The capital of Greece has a long history. It was founded three thousand five hundred years ago and had its golden age during Greek Antiquity under the democratic rule of Perikles. At that time the symbol of one Europe’s most influential cultures was created, Greek’s national sanctuary, the Acropolis. It took nine years to build the great temple of the goddess Athene, The Parthenon, that was completed in 438 B.C. Unique among all other Greek temples, with its imposing appearance and artistic decoration this temple signified the great influence and power of ancient Athens. With its striking majestic appearance and timeless elegance it was more magnificent than any other building in Greece. Six female figures, the Karyatides, support the southern hall of the Ionic Temple of Erechtheion that stands on sacred ground close to the main temple. Since the beginning of the 4th century the mythical kings Kekrops and Erechtheu were worshiped here until the city’s subsequent decline. Legend has it that during a contest between the gods Poseidon left the imprint of his trident on a rock upon which Athene created an olive tree. Throughout its history the temple served many purposes and the Turks, somewhat disrespectfully, transformed the Erechtheion into a harem. The evening sun descends slowly across the ruins of Ancient Greece. The marble of the temple shines golden as though to thank the gods for creating this remarkable city. A city in which both antiquity and the present unite: a symbol of the Occident.

The Acropolis of Athens is an ancient citadel located on a high rocky outcrop above the city of Athens and contains the remains of several ancient buildings of great architectural and historic significance, the most famous being the Parthenon. Although there are many other acropoleis in Greece, the significance of the Acropolis of Athens is such that it is commonly known as "The Acropolis" without qualification.
While there is evidence that the hill was inhabited as far back as the fourth millennium BC, it was Pericles (c. 495 – 429 BC) in the fifth century BC who coordinated the construction of the site's most important buildings including the Parthenon, the Propylaia, the Erechtheion and the temple of Athena Nike. The Parthenon and the other buildings were seriously damaged during the 1687 siege by the Venetians in the Morean War when the Parthenon was being used for gunpowder storage and was hit by a cannonball.[ (wikipedia)

Travel video about destination Acropolis in Greece.
For more than 2500 years a landmark and symbol of one of the most influential European cultures, the Acropolis, has towered above the rooftops of Athens. It took nine years to build the great temple of the goddess Athene, known as The Parthenon, that was completed in 438 B.C. Unique among all other Greek temples, with its imposing appearance and artistic decoration, the Parthenon signified the great influence and power of ancient Athens. Just a few metres from the Athens Temple, the Acropolis Museum contains numerous outstanding archaeological treasures that have been discovered in this vicinity. The majority of the exhibits date back to the 5th and 6th centuries, a richly golden time in the culture of ancient Greece. Since 1878 the museum has exhibited several ancient sculptures of the Acropolis in addition to various well preserved sections of the Parthenon's magnificent frieze. Throughout the centuries the temples and buildings that are situated on Acropolis Rock have had an amazing influence on both artists and architects alike. The unique cultural value of these imposing ruins has once again become of vital significance in the home town of the Olympic Games. Thus, the ancient Acropolis will continue to be the 'Cradle of Occidental Culture' and will illuminate the night sky of Athens forever.

Travel video about destination Greece.
Although Greece is the home of ancient gods, birthplace of European civilisation and a country of great warriors and philosophers it is also a country of many islands with tiny villages and white houses, a deep blue sea and almost constant sunshine.Athens is a lively city set in historic surroundings. Unique among all other Greek temples is the Acropolis whose imposing appearance and artistic decoration signified the great influence and power of ancient Athens. Six female figures, the Karyatides, support the southern hall of the Ionic Temple of Erechtheion that stands on sacred ground close to the main temple. The imposing Mitrópolis is the main Greek Orthodox cathedral in Athens. A total of four architects designed this cathedral whose walls comprise the remains of no less than seventy former sacred buildings. The Cyclades Islands are situated in the middle of the Southern Aegean that like a magic circle flows around its former centre, the sacred island of Delos, Mykonos. For centuries this picturesque former pirate village in the middle of Cyclades group of islands has been the meeting place for artists, V.I.P.’s and the international glitterati. The Cyclades are also known as The Pearls Of Greece and it seems as though the gods have scattered a handful of beautiful pearls into the deep blue Aegean Sea. In ancient times they were also known as The Islands Of Light because Apollo, the God of Light and Learning, was born here and also worshipped on the islands. Santorini is the most southerly of the Cyclades Islands and the legendary location of the mythical lost island of Atlantis and also a breathtaking island paradise of rock, lava, sea and light.Crete is the ‘Island Of Light’ and the birthplace of Zeus. Heraklion is the capital of the largest and most southerly of the Greek islands on which a highly developed culture has existed for four thousand years. It’s no wonder that in these magnificent islands in the Aegean numerous gods, knights and tourists have always found much good fortune and enchantment!

Greece Travel Guide http://bit.ly/19QqISc
Shepherd Entertainment gives you the history of Athens and takes you on a tour of the city's sites and attractions. A walk
through the Greek capital, which lies in the southern part of the country, where the Peloponnesus meets Attica, will expose its visitors to world famous attractions such as the Acropolis, the theater of Dionysus and the Odeon of Herod Atticus.
The Greek capital lies in the southern part of the country where the Peloponnesus meets Attica. Visiting the sundrenched landscapes of Hellas is in fact a pilgrimage to the beginnings of European culture. The ruins of Athens, ancient temples, palaces and forts are more than just crumbling heaps of stones. They are tangible reminders of Greek cultural heritage not only in sculpture and architecture but in linguistics, science, politics and sports. The world as we know it has a thousand links to ancient Greece. This is the birthplace of democracy, the first of the big games and of hundreds of concepts and words that all European languages use to this very day. The ancient ideal of beauty and perfect sense of proportion still leave us spellbound as we gaze upon their often fragmented sculptures.
Philosophy, literature, theater and the science of history all have their roots in ancient Athens. The best known feature of the city is the Acropolis crowned by the gleaming pillars of the Parthenon. This majestic complex of buildings was built on a hilltop 165m high. On its southern slope, we find the remains of two ancient theaters, the theater of Dionysus and the Odeon of Herod Atticus. The Beule Gate leading to the Propylaeum was named after the archeologist Earnest Beule who discovered the gate beneath Turkish bastion. The two rocky towers were originally erected in Roman times and expanded later by the Turks.
A line of stairs is divided by a terrace. The marble covering of the stairs has now been reconstructed. Earlier tourists suffered 60 to 70 accidents a year climbing the stairs. The Odeon was built by a wealthy and famous patron of Athens in memory of his deceased young wife following the standards of Roman theatre design. This theater, once very ornate and covered in marble could accommodate 6000 spectators. Its remains have been painstakingly restored and the Odeon now hosts the Athens festival every September. Left of the terrace stands a huge column. The marble memorial was erected in the second century BC to honor Iptheus Agrippa, son in law of Emperor Augustus. The almost 9m high base once supported a four horse war chariot in bronze but that has been lost.
The Propylaeum is the entrance to the Acropolis, an ornate gateway, a fitting overture to the fantastic sight that awaits us. It was commissioned by Pericles and designed by Phidias but construction started under the direction of Manacles after Pericles left Athens. The 18m wide and 24m long propylaeum is divided at the three halls by ionic columns. It originally had a coffered ceiling which was destroyed by an explosion in Turkish times.

Visiting the sundrenched landscapes of Hellas is in fact a pilgrimage to the beginnings of European culture. The ruins of Athens, ancient temples, palaces and forts are more than just crumbling heaps of stones. They are tangible reminders of Greek cultural heritage not only in sculpture and architecture but in linguistics, science, politics and sports. The world as we know it has a thousand links to ancient Greece. This is the birthplace of democracy, the first of the big games and of hundreds of concepts and words that all European languages use to this very day. The ancient ideal of beauty and perfect sense of proportion still leave us spellbound as we gaze upon their often fragmented sculptures.
Philosophy, literature, theater and the science of history all have their roots in ancient Athens. The best known feature of the city is the Acropolis crowned by the gleaming pillars of the Parthenon. This majestic complex of buildings was built on a hilltop 165m high. On its southern slope, we find the remains of two ancient theaters, the theater of Dionysus and the Odeon of Herod Atticus. The Beule Gate leading to the Propylaeum was named after the archeologist Earnest Beule who discovered the gate beneath Turkish bastion. The two rocky towers were originally erected in Roman times and expanded later by the Turks.
A line of stairs is divided by a terrace. The marble covering of the stairs has now been reconstructed. Earlier tourists suffered 60 to 70 accidents a year climbing the stairs. The Odeon was built by a wealthy and famous patron of Athens in memory of his deceased young wife following the standards of Roman theatre design. This theater, once very ornate and covered in marble could accommodate 6000 spectators. Its remains have been painstakingly restored and the Odeon now hosts the Athens festival every September. Left of the terrace stands a huge column. The marble memorial was erected in the second century BC to honor Iptheus Agrippa, son in law of Emperor Augustus. The almost 9m high base once supported a four horse war chariot in bronze but that has been lost.
The Propylaeum is the entrance to the Acropolis, an ornate gateway, a fitting overture to the fantastic sight that awaits us. It was commissioned by Pericles and designed by Phidias but construction started under the direction of Manacles after Pericles left Athens. The 18m wide and 24m long propylaeum is divided at the three halls by ionic columns. It originally had a coffered ceiling which was destroyed by an explosion in Turkish times.

Greece is the cradle of the European civilization, a quarry of mythology and ancient relics. On the Chalkidiki Peninsula we can visit the city of Thessalonica, the beaches of Katerini and Paralia, and from the boat we can take a look at the mystical monastery republic, Athos. Near the legendary Olympus Mountain we can take a look at the ‘rocks of gods’, the Meteora monasteries built on the sky-high cliffs. Athens’s well known building is the Acropolis, which is garlanded by the golden pillars of the Parthenon. The Agora was the marketplace of the ancient Athens, while the Plaka is a current, full of life eastern bazaar. From the capital the visitors can take journeys to the canal of Corinth and to the beaches of the Attican Riviera. From the dock of Pireus it is easy to take a boat and visit the islands of the Aegean and Ionic Sea. The islands tell us of Romans, Byzantines, pirates and knights. Among the olive tree gardens and orange trees white houses, temples and sunlit ruins are hiding. The sea is blue in the bays surrounded by beaches and on the terrace of a tavern the flavors of the Greek cuisine are always welcome.
