Erechtheion

Erechtheion

Also known as the Temple of Athena, this intricate structure can be found on the north side of the Acropolis site. The porch of Caryatids is a real highlight where you’ll see six intricately sculptured female figures supporting the porch’s roof. It was made using marble but also contains traces of iron, which over time, have given the structure a honey-coloured glow.
