Very beautiful "entrance gate" to the Acropolis, mighty white marble columns. Here you get a great insight into what awaits you on the Acropolis. Compared to other ancient buildings in Athens that are over 2000 years old, the Propylaea is still in good condition.

Due to the very steep and arduous path up, you are immediately rewarded by the impressive architecture of the entrance.
