Temple of Hephaestus Review

The Hephistos Temple is also a very good and beautiful place. The internal environment of the temple is not very complete. It is the style of ancient Greek culture. The huge columns are also very special. The internal space here is also quite large.

Ancient Greece was a pantheistic country, where every city-state, every natural phenomenon, was considered to be governed by a deity, and therefore various temples were built, and various deities were served, and the temples were the place where God lived.

The Temple of Hephistus (Ναός Ηφαίστου) is a well-preserved Greek temple; it remains as it is. It is a Doric multilateral temple located on the northwest side of the Athens market, on the top of the market Kolonos. From the 7th century to 1834, it was St. George Akmat (Saint George Akamates) of the Greek Orthodox Church. The condition of the building was maintained due to its long history of use.

It is one of the best preserved ancient buildings in Greece, and is dedicated to Hephaestus, the god of fire and casting. The temple has 34 columns and nine stories of the "12 great achievements of Heracles" carved around the roof.

In fact, you can see the general appearance here, once temples, the market, there are many people like to have to invite a guide, otherwise you really come in vain. If you follow the regiment, they will also bring you here.
