The Acropolis is in Athens, Greece is a citadel built on top of a hill and the name literally means “high city”.

It features impressive architecture from the classical world and is considered a UNESCO heritage site. The most famous and visually stunning structure is the Parthenon, the ruins of a temple dedicated to Athena, the patron goddess of the city of Athens.

The Parthenon used to have a high statue of the goddess, made with gold and ivory, but was unfortunately lost into antiquity.

Other must-see iconic buildings of the Acropolis include the Theater of Dionysus and the Odeon of Herodes Atticus.
