- Acropolis - As the most magnificent sanctuary of ancient Athens, primarily devoted to its patron, the goddess Athena, the Acropolis has been a central feature of the city for millennia. The Acropolis monuments (the Parthenon, the Temple of Athena Nike, the Erechtheion, the Propylaea, the Theater of Dionysus,…) are all exceptional masterpieces of ancient architecture, influencing art and culture for centuries while harmonizing with their natural surroundings.
- Theatre of Dionysus - Dionysus, the god of wine and grape harvest, was honored in the Theatre of Dionysus, the oldest theatre established in Athens. It was here that the unparalleled works of Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, and Aristophanes were first performed.
- Temple of Athena Nike - Dedicated to the goddesses Athena and Nike, the Temple of Athena Nike honored Nike, the goddess of victory in Greek mythology, and Athena, celebrated in this form as victorious in war. Legend has it that the cult statue of the goddess at the temple was wingless to ensure she would never leave Athens.
- Erechtheion - The Erechtheion, an ancient Greek temple on the Acropolis of Athens, was built to house the ancient wooden cult statue of Athena and to celebrate the city’s greatness at the peak of its power and influence.
- Parthenon - Dominating the Acropolis hill in Athens, the Parthenon was constructed in the mid-5th century BCE and dedicated to the Greek goddess Athena Parthenos (“Athena the Virgin”). This temple is widely regarded as the pinnacle of the Doric order’s development, the simplest of the three Classical Greek architectural styles.
- Ancient Agora of Athens - The Agora was the vibrant heart of ancient Athens, serving as the hub of political, commercial, administrative, and social activities, as well as the religious and cultural center and the seat of justice.
- Temple of Hephaestus - The splendid Temple of Hephaestus, one of the best-preserved ancient temples globally, was a place of worship for two significant deities for many merchants and shop owners of the Ancient Agora: Hephaestus, the god protecting all metallurgists, and Athena Ergani, the goddess safeguarding all potters and cottage industries.
