Walk among the remains of what was once the grandest temple in Greece, dedicated to Zeus, the king of the Olympian gods. Admire the 15 surviving Corinthian columns, each standing 17 meters (56 feet) tall, and imagine the awe-inspiring sight of all 104 columns when the temple was fully intact.

Step into a 700-year construction story and uncover the fascinating history behind the Temple of Olympian Zeus, once one of the largest temples of the ancient world.

Just outside the temple, don’t miss the Arch of Hadrian, a monumental gateway that symbolically separates the “old city” of Theseus from the “new city” of Hadrian, highlighting the Roman influence on Athens.
