This fascinating museum contains relics of the Temple of Athena Nike, votive offerings – including Korai, marble statues of young women – and sculptures depicting the Gigantomachy, the battle between the Gods of Olympus and the giants.

Fans of ancient Greece will feel like they're in Elysium, with exhibits covering the period from the 5th century BC to the 5th century AD. Walk around archaic statues and see them from all angles, lit by beams of sunlight.

Learn about the development of the city-state and the country's transition from aristocracy to tyranny and, eventually, democracy. Watch a video presentation about the Parthenon and view the coffered ceiling of the Propylaia from the parapet of the temple of Athena Nike.

This place is a history book in a building. Step inside and discover all you need to know about the cradle of Western civilization.

Acropolis museum is well worth visiting- the history of the Acropolis through the centuries is explained and lots of artifacts on display. However, the skip the line queue was moving just as slowly as the queue to purchase tickets. No real advantage to having tickets in advance.
