You don’t specify whether you’re interested in ancient Greek buildings or just famous buildings in Greece.
The White Tower in Thessaloniki is famous, the Parliament in Athens, the temple of Poseidon in Sounion.
Have you ever been in Mystras? And Greece has ancient buildings everywhere. I mentioned Mystras because there is such a mystery about it.
oi Philippoi, Philipp’s tomb in vergina, Dion and some much more……………
Knossos Palace in Crete,
The old city in Rhodes,
The remaining of Ancient Olympia
The ancient Temple in Delphi
The Apocalypse Cave in Patmos
Greece is full of history, of glory and spirit, of all times
Visiting Greece one is exposed to literally thousands of ancient sites with buildings in various conditions. Aside of the Parthenon, on the Acropolis itself there are several other buildings. The delicate masterpiece of Pheidias, the temple to Apteros Nike and the Erechtheion. The Agora in Plaka is a rebuilt ancient building and Thesion has the Temple to Yphestos that is quite well preserved. There is not enough space to amplify within, but this ought to be a good start for you.
