About Temple of Olympian Zeus

The Temple of Olympian Zeus, located in Athens, Greece, is one of the largest ancient temples in Europe, dedicated to Zeus, the king of the Olympian gods. Construction began in the 6th century BC under Athenian ruler Peisistratos but was completed only in the 2nd century AD by Roman Emperor Hadrian. Once consisting of 104 massive Corinthian columns, only 15 remain standing today, offering a glimpse into its former grandeur. The temple exemplifies classical architecture and the enduring legacy of ancient Greek civilization. It stands near the Acropolis and is a testament to the cultural and religious significance of ancient Athens.

Spain was amazing! The tapas tour in Barcelona and the flamenco show in Seville were highlights of our Viacation trip. Planning was efficient and transparent.
