Virtual Field Trip Greece

Students will visit Acropolis of Athens, a magnificent hilltop citadel that has stood for thousands of years. The Acropolis was the center of ancient Athens and is home to some of the most famous structures in the world, including the Parthenon, the Temple of Athena. These impressive buildings were built over 2,500 years ago and are still standing today, a testament to the ingenuity and skill of the ancient Greeks.

As we explore the Acropolis, we will learn about the fascinating stories and myths that surround these ancient structures. For example, did you know that the Parthenon was built to honor the goddess Athena, who was believed to be the protector of Athens? Or that the Temple of Athena Nike was built to commemorate a military victory?
