Athens Holidays - The Acropolis (Part IV)




我在雅典衛城拍了很多照片。我很高興能夠和你們分享這一神秘的地方。


文化意義


每四年雅典人便會舉行泛雅典娜節,其與奧林匹克運動會的重要度相約。
在節日期間會有一隊隊伍由雅典城向衛城前進,

並進入巴特農神殿(在巴特農神殿的帶狀雕刻裡有描述)。
而雅典人會將佩潑洛斯女裝放在菲迪亞斯的巨大象牙與黃金雅典娜雕像上。


美術與建築

雅典衛城入口被稱為衛城山門。在衛城山門右方有著細小的勝利女神雅典娜神殿。
而由菲迪亞斯雕塑的雅典娜銅像,

原來是站在山門正中。在衛城正中為巴特農神殿(即純潔的雅典娜神殿)。
 在山門左方為厄瑞克忒翁廟與女像柱。城外亦有著劇場,稱為酒神劇場。(資料來自維基百科)
 
 

I took many photos at the Acropoli in Athens.
I am very pleased to be able to share this mythical place with you.


Archaeological remains


The entrance to the Acropolis was a monumental gateway called the Propylaea.

To the south of the entrance is the tiny Temple of Athena Nike.
A bronze statue of Athena, sculpted by Phidias,

originally stood at its centre. At the centre of the Acropolis is the Parthenon or Temple of Athena Parthenos
(Athena the Virgin). East of the entrance and north of the Parthenon is the temple known as the Erechtheum.

South of the platform that forms the top of the Acropolis there are also the remains of an outdoor theatre called
Theatre of Dionysus. A few hundred metres away, there is the now partially reconstructed Theatre of Herodes Atticus.

All the valuable ancient artifacts are situated in the Acropolis Museum, which resides on the southern
slope of the same rock, 280 metres from the Parthenon. (Information from Wekipedia)

  1. A very interesting series with the concept of using wide angle lenses. So often we are tempted into falling into the tourist trap when we go to such places. Well done on your bravery here. Picture 2 is amazing.

  12. Hi helloninie, 我相信演唱會應該會在The Theatre of Dionysus,
    因為是比較外圍, 而且太多在山下比較安全...
