A part of the remaining temple of Zeus, the huge pillars also reflect a value of the locals, the historical traces of this place are quite huge, and the things suitable for visiting are also relatively rich, and there are many good landscapes.
The colonnade of Zeus is the remnant of the fall of the temple of Zeus. This temple should be built in the same period as the Acropolis, willing to be used to show off the glory of Athens. But soon Athens was replaced by ancient Rome. The Romans transformed it into a Roman bathhouse.
The temple of Zeus, located in the village of Olympia in Athens, Greece, was built to sacrifice Zeus and was one of the largest temples in ancient Greece. The temple of Zeus was built in 470 BC by architect Libon, and the statue of Zeus was in charge of the sculptor Phoebe. It lasted 15 years until 86 BC when Roman commander Sulla took Athens, destroying unfinished buildings and removing some of the pillars and other building materials to Rome. They are still visible today on the site of the ancient Roman square in the center of Rome, where the Temple of Zeus is famous for its ivory and gold statues.
The Zeus Corridor is located opposite the Hadrian Gate. It is more comprehensive to look down at the height of the Acropolis. You can imagine its spectacular back then. At the foot of the city, there are only a few stone pillars left. I can't imagine the structure and appearance of the original. This is a must-visit attraction in Athens. You must not miss it.
The Zeus Corridor in Athens is part of the Temple of Zeus in Olympia, which was originally a cloister in front of the temple. Now there is only one neatly arranged and tall pillar, although the top of the top is no longer there, but from the existing relics, you can still feel how majestic the Temple of Zeus is, worthy of the gods of the gods.
The Zeus Corridor of Athens is part of the famous Olympia Zeus Temple, which was originally very large in size, but now only one straight stone pillar is left, arranged very neatly, so you can also marvel at the temple's grandeur in ancient times.
