A picture is worth a thousand words
Do you want to get a first-hand idea of where all the Acropolis sculptures are housed by the Hellenic Ministry of Culture?
The Greek government has invested 130 million euro for the construction of the Acropolis Museum, the definitive
exhibition hall for all the invaluable sculptures and findings from the Athenian Acropolis! Designed to link the exhibits with the actual momument,
the Acropolis Museum is now ready and open to the public, just a breath away from the Parthenon. Take the links below and plan your own visit, maybe this season!
[To fly over the Acropolis and the Acropolis Museum you need to have Google Earth installed on your computer; if you don't, you
can download it from the following link:]

You can also find another couple of placemarks put on the globe by AcropolisofAthens.gr for you. You can now fly to the precise point of the Parthenon
where the statue of Athena Parthenos used to stand inside the temple, and see the olive tree that goddess Athena planted on
the Acropolis as her offer to the ancient Athenians! Simply click on the links below!
The AcropolisofAthens.gr placemarks have been listed in the 'History Illustrated' section of the Google Earth Community directory. To view
