Q1: Where is the Acropolis in Athens?

[Answer]

Each sanctuary was unique. So here we begin a tour of some sanctuaries and their temples by starting at Athens.

The temples in Athens were mainly placed on a high limestone hill in the middle of the city. This was the Acropolis.

Despite wars, the weather and other misfortunes, this is the most intact sanctuary of ancient Greece.
