Stop At: Acropolis Museum, Dionysiou Areopagitou 15, Athens 117 42 Greece
The Archaic Acropolis Gallery: you will climb up the steps of the ground floor – just as you would in Propylaea – and you will find yourself in the “Archaic Hall”. You will walk among the Kouroi, the Kores and other sculptures standing scattered in the space, just as they were once placed on the Acropolis of Athens under the bright sunlight of Attica. Listening to fascinating details about the Olympian gods, the mythical heroes and the people of the time of Solon, Peisistratos, Cleisthenes and Pericles, you will feel the pulse of ancient Athens.
Duration: 40 minutes

The Parthenon Gallery: You will continue to the next level of the museum by entering the “Parthenon Hall”, where you will head to the north and align with the “Sacred Rock”. Walking around circumferentially in a Parthenon simulation area you will admire the exquisite works of the ancient Greek art in the corresponding position they were placed on the temple. You will be fascinated by the secrets of the Parthenon Frieze that reveals the founding values of the Athenian democracy.
Duration: 40 minutes
