The Most Beautiful Snowy Acropolis Photos and Videos

As most of America has seen snow these last few days from Texas to New York and all the way up to Toronto, Canada it was Athens rare turn to wear white. Greece rarely gets snow and has seen snow in the Northern parts weeks ago, from Kozani to Florina. So today, the amazing Acropolis and most of Athens woke up to a beautifully rare sight of snow from Syntagma to Glyfada. Greece is widely known for over 250 days of sunshine per year so today was one of those rare and romantically beautiful scenes for Athenians.

We have gathered the most beautiful snow covered Acropolis photos from social media for you to share and like as you sip on your tea or coffee within your homes as we are still in lockdown in most of the world.

The Parthenon, the symbol of Western civilization, is one of the 7 wonders of the world. The marble temple was built between 447 and 432 B.C. and is over 2,500 years old. The “Parthenona” was dedicated to the Greek goddess Athena, and sits high above a compound of temples known as the Acropolis of Athens. Throughout the centuries, the Parthenon has withstood earthquakes, fires, wars, explosions and looting yet remains, although battered, a powerful symbol of Ancient Greece, democracy, and the resilience of the Greek culture.
