What to expect

Acropolis
2h · Admission ticket not included

The Acropolis of Athens is one of the world’s most remarkable ancient landmarks and a symbol of classical Greece. Perched high above the city, the archaeological site offers spectacular views across Athens and includes some of the most important monuments of ancient Greek civilization. Visitors can admire the remains of temples, gateways, theatres, and sacred buildings while experiencing the historic heart of ancient Athens.
Parthenon
Pass by

The Parthenon is the most famous monument on the Acropolis and one of the greatest surviving masterpieces of classical Greek architecture. Built in the 5th century BC and dedicated to Athena, the patron goddess of Athens, the temple is renowned for its impressive proportions, Doric columns, and sculptural decoration. Standing at the highest point of the Acropolis, it also provides remarkable views over Athens and the surrounding landscape.
Theatre of Dionysus
Pass by

The Theatre of Dionysus is located on the southern slope of the Acropolis and is closely connected with the origins of ancient Greek theatre. The site once hosted performances of tragedies and comedies during major festivals dedicated to Dionysus. Its stone seating area and dramatic setting offer a fascinating glimpse into the cultural life of ancient Athens.
Herod Atticus Odeon
Pass by

The Odeon of Herodes Atticus is an impressive ancient theatre built on the southern slope of the Acropolis. Constructed in the 2nd century AD, it was originally used for musical performances. Its beautifully preserved stone structure and semicircular seating remain an iconic part of the Acropolis landscape, and the venue continues to host performances today.
Propylaea
Pass by

The Propylaea forms the monumental entrance to the Acropolis and provides an impressive first view of the sacred complex. Built during the 5th century BC, it combines grand architectural design with the natural rocky landscape of the hill. Its imposing columns and marble construction reflect the ambition and artistic achievements of classical Athens.
Temple of Athena Nike
Pass by

The Temple of Athena Nike is a small and elegant temple positioned beside the entrance to the Acropolis. Dedicated to Athena Nike, the goddess of victory, it was built in the 5th century BC. Its elevated position and refined Ionic architecture make it one of the most distinctive monuments of the Acropolis.
Pass by

The Erechtheion is one of the most distinctive monuments on the Acropolis, known for its unusual design and the famous Caryatid statues. Built in the 5th century BC, the temple was associated with several important figures and traditions of ancient Athens. The Caryatid Porch, featuring six sculpted female figures instead of conventional columns, is one of the most recognizable architectural features of the Acropolis.
