Temple of Olympian Zeus, A Great Pitstop

When visiting Athens the various sites located in the city centre vary in size and condition, periodically throughout the year maintenance is performed to ensure the building remaining structures are as stable as possible whilst remaining as authentic as possible. On my occassion visiting the temple of Zeus it was being maintained and I can ensure you that the temple still amazed and lived up to expectations! The site can be viewed in detail in under 30 minutes and is included in the Athens pass or entry can be bought at the entrance, when inside you’re able to walk around the ground and get a great view of Hadrian’s Arch alongside some unique interactions with turtles who walk around the area. Turtles can be found in most of the sites in Greece and for me being from the UK their presence was always a welcomed surprise. Overall I would definitely recommend adding the Temple of Zeus to your tour when visiting Athens and taking some pictures at the ancient site! #athens #greece #templeofolympianzeus
