The place was way too crowded and on the steps on the grounds there were angry shouts for jd to walk on. You were not even allowed to stop to admire it or take pictures s. Very tense supervisors. Cool bad feeling about something that had been a dream to see in real life for years.

Incredible! The whole visit is a feast for the eyes, even for the kids. The queue-cutting tickets are an undeniable time-saver, given the crowds at the Acropolis.

Would have been nice to know that 28th of October was a national bank holiday with many of the venues open for free. Also, the venues would be even better with more information signs to tell the visitor what one is seeing. Apart from that I am happy

Explore ancient Greek history

The Acropolis is a stunning Athenian temple complex located on a rocky outcrop above the city. Stop by the ruins of legendary structures like the Propylaea, the entrance to the ancient temple of Parthenon. Dedicated to Athena, the Parthenon’s main function was to shelter the monumental statue of Athena that was made by Pheidias out of gold and ivory.

Temples in the Acropolis

Wander across the once-sacred halls of Athena Nike and the Erechtheion. The Odeon of Herodes Atticus will leave you in awe. The large amphitheater was built in AD 161 by wealthy Roman Herodes Atticus in memory of his wife Regilla and is still used to this day for concerts and other events. You have the option to include a mobile audio guide in case you're looking to add some insights to your tour.
