The small exhibition and the publication accompanying it include three sections:
a) a selection of annotated traveler images from the Acropolis and the Parthenon (by Carrey, Dodwell, Fauvel, Pars, among others),
b) a short biography and excerpts from Byron’s poems “The Curse of Minerva” and “Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage”, which refer to the brutal detachment and destruction of the Parthenon’s architectural sculptures by Elgin and their subsequent underhanded seizure and removal, and
c) Byron’s original passport, a genuine, unexpected Sultanic firman [Islamic royal mandate or decree], exhibited for the first time in the Museum, and serving as an opportunity to reopen the discussion on the return and reunification of the Parthenon sculptures.

Walking through the Acropolis feels like stepping into history itself. The ruins, bathed in golden light, tell stories of gods, philosophers, and civilizations past. It&rsquo;s a breathtaking reminder of how far we&rsquo;ve come&mdash;and how much beauty remains in what endures.

Parthenon

环球史蒂夫

The Theatre of Hirod Atticus and the Column of Patten, however, the Column of the Acropolis is not real. The Column of the Acropolis Museum and... The British Museum is like most Greek temples, and the temple is used as a vault. 1, built in 447 BC to replace the old Parthenon (destroyed in 480 BC by Persians). 2, for a while was the treasure of the Tyrolean alliance (later turned into the Athenian Empire). In the 6th century, Patnon was converted to a church dedicated to the Virgin Mary (the formerly dedicated Athena was also a virgin). 4. In the early 1460s, after being conquered by the Ottoman Turks, it was used as a mosque. In 1687, it was used as a gunpowder bank by the Turkish army and was unfortunately badly damaged in an explosion. By 1800, only half of the statues of Patnon had survived, and British Ambassador Sir Erkin, after obtaining the approval of the Ottoman government, began to transport half of the surviving statues back to the UK at his own expense from 1801, and began to be displayed in the British Museum from 1817.

Детям в этом музее делать нечего. Никакого интерактива и прочего, это музей в понимании 50 х годов xx века, безнадёжно устарел :) Это не отменяет отличной, пусть и несколько однотипной коллекции. Если интересует культура и история древнего мира, обязательно сходите. С билетами от трипа такая маза - на взрослых они покупаются, а детей не добавить. Могут попросить выписать бесплатные билеты на детей. Но нам сказали об этом и тут же пустили так :) В субботу не работает магазин, но вас вкусно накормят в кафе (пироги, снеки, салаты). Кафе во внутреннем дворе, очень приятное место.

Temple of Olympian Zeus

The scene must be accompanied by a background story, otherwise it will only look at the ruins of a pile of stone pillars. Limestone, the roof is built in marble. Supported by 34 Corinthian columns about 17 meters high, 13 long and 6 wide. Its gables and interior hall porch are beautifully carved marble, and there are many Athens-style statues in the glaze.

Acropolis Museum

118***48

The Greek word for the Acropolis means &quot;the city of the mountains&quot;. There are many acropolis in Greece, but the Acropolis has been the pride of the Greeks ever since it was built two or six hundred years ago. The Acropolis is located on a limestone hill 150 meters southwest of Athens, built in the 5th century BC, and is a holy site to commemorate the victory of the Hippo War and sacrifice to Athena, the patron saint of Athens. The main building, the Parthenon, is backed by the Athenian Prakka maze of houses, and stands steeply on one side of the sea, towering in the blue sea and blue sky. In addition to the Parthenon, the Acropolis has a mountain gate, the Temple of Victory, the Temple of Irektion, and the Adikus Concert Hall. The chief architect was the famous Fidias. Six hundred years later, the Roman historian Prutuck said of the Acropolis: &quot;The tower is towering, magnificent, beautiful, unparalleled&quot;, and the 19th-century French writer Flaubert called the Acropolis &quot;the most beautiful source of history and art.&quot; The acropolis in the sun is a monarch dressed in a layer of gold, on the cliff, overlooking the state, majestic, and behind it a large area of houses scattered, twists and turns, wine restaurants and restaurants are in stark contrast. But the beauty of the Acropolis is not only the beauty of the sun.
