Description
The Acropolis served as the "Sacred Rock " of Athens and its Parthenon remains symbolic of Greek civilization . The Parthenon , built between 447 and 438 BC , is a magnificent ruin . Once painted with brilliant colors and boasting the reliefs now housed in London's British Museum , the Parthenon preserves its proportion and design , ironically rendered more refined in post-classical eyes by the loss of its paint job .
