The image shows a snowy landscape featuring a full-scale replica of the Parthenon in the background. The foreground is covered in snow, with bare trees scattered throughout, their branches heavy with snow.

In the distance, there are small groups of people traveling on a walkway to the side of the building, while others build snowmen in an open space in front of it. The sky above is overcast and gray, contributing to the wintry atmosphere of the scene.

The image depicts an outdoor winter scene covered in snow. In the foreground, there's a small snowman standing on a snowy field. A person is standing near it.

The background features several buildings peeking over the line of leafless trees, including the Nicholas S. Zeppos College tower at Vanderbilt University, as well as campus, retail, and residential buildings.

The sky above is overcast with a grayish hue.

The image shows an outdoor snowy scene in the dark hours of the early morning. In the foreground, there's a small snowman made from two snowballs stacked together and adorned with what appears to be a twig or stick as its arms. The snowman has a simple face, composed of darker material.

In the background, there are several buildings illuminated by artificial lights, suggesting an urban setting. A tree trunk is visible in the lower right corner of the image, partially covered in snow. A snow-covered, concrete bench can be seen a small distance behind the surface on which the snowman has been built. The overall atmosphere appears calm and quiet with the snow-covered ground reflecting some light from the nearby buildings.

The image depicts an outdoor winter scene in the early morning, as indicated by the dim lighting and the dark sky. The ground is covered in snow, creating a serene white blanket over the landscape.

In the foreground, there are several low stone benches partially buried under snow, with some of their tops visible above the snowline. A small mound of snow sits on top of one bench near the center of the image, and it has been shaped into a simple head sculpture, with facial features defined by small sticks.

The background features leafless trees scattered across the area, their branches bare against the winter sky. In the distance, there is a multi-story building with illuminated windows, suggesting that it might be an office or institutional structure. The overall atmosphere conveys a quiet and chilly urban park setting after a snowfall.

Large, Classical-style stone colonnade on a hilltop with several columns, under a blue sky. People are scattered around the site, walking on paths and sitting on the grassy slopes surrounding the colonnade.

Free view: Greece's famed Parthenon is clear of scaffolding for the first time in decades.

The iron constructions inevitably hid certain details and altered the aesthetic experience on the Sacred Rock of the Acropolis, however the scaffolding is set to return for restoration work to continue.

Enter the Acropolis of Athens, a magnificent site.

It is a home to some of the greatest monuments of ancient Greek architecture.

It was built during the 5th century BC, the Golden Age of Athens when the city became a center for the arts, philosophy, science, and literature, housing influential figures like Socrates, Plato, Sophocles, and Herodotus.

It is a universal symbol of classical spirit and civilization that has shaped the foundation of our modern world.

Dedicated to Athena, the goddess of wisdom, warfare, and protection.
