Parthenon




In Nashville, they have a replica of the Parthenon. It is the same size as the original in Greece. Inside, they have a replicated Athena. She's huge! In ancient times, Athena was made out of real gold. The people of Greece worshiped her and thought she would protect them. This was an impressive sight indeed.
