  Acropolis

  The Acropolis is the most iconic landmark of Athens and one of the most important ancient citadels in the world. Standing on a rocky hill above the city, it has been a symbol of democracy, philosophy, and classical art for more than 2,500 years. At the heart of the Acropolis stands the Parthenon, a masterpiece of ancient Greek architecture dedicated to the goddess Athena, the protector of the city. Built in the 5th century BC during the Golden Age of Pericles, it represents harmony, balance, and the highest achievements of classical civilization. Other significant monuments on the Acropolis include: • The Propylaea – the grand marble gateway to the sacred hill. • The Temple of Athena Nike – a small, elegant temple celebrating victory. • The Erechtheion – famous for the Porch of the Caryatids, where sculpted female figures replace traditional columns. Today, the Acropolis is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and remains a powerful symbol of ancient Greek culture,
