About it

The Parthenon is a marble temple on the Acropolis, the rocky hill above Athens, in Greece. It was built from 447 to 432 BC for the goddess Athena, the city's protector. Its rows of columns look perfectly straight, but they bulge and lean very slightly, so that from a distance they look straighter.

Tap it for a procession like the great festival the people of Athens held for Athena: eight robed figures, some carrying baskets and jars on their heads, walk in single file along the temple and across its steps. In the Splash tab, see the temple as it stands today or as it looked when it was new.
