🏛️Attraction introduction: 🇬🇷Parthenon

#July2025 ⚡Parthenon🌏The Parthenon 🕰️Construction Date: 447 BC (Age of Pericles) // ⌛The pinnacle of human rational aesthetics! Built to celebrate Athena's victory over Persia, the Akathikos Mound has stood for 2,500 years. ⛰️ ✨Using mathematics to conquer vision—the columns are slightly convex, the cornices are tilted upward, and the columns are slightly curved outward to offset the visual illusion of concavity when viewed from a distance. The foundation is arched approximately 6 cm in the middle to counteract the visual illusion of concavity. 👀 This design, known as "optical correction" or "optical bending," demonstrates the ancient Greeks' profound understanding of architectural aesthetics and technology. 📖 🔥Epic Construction Log: Pericles mobilized the vast funds of the Delian League 💸 and summoned the top masters of ancient Greece—architects Ictinus and Callicrates—to design the structure, and master sculptor Phidias to oversee the decoration. ❗20,000 tons of Pentelicus marble were transported from a quarry 19 kilometers away. A massive project completed in 15 years, at its peak, 300 stonemasons and sculptors worked simultaneously daily. ⭐Amazing details: ▪️Golden Ratio Design⚖️ (The temple facade's height-to-width ratio is close to 19:31, very close to the golden ratio. The golden ratio is not only reflected in the overall structural proportions, but also in detailed design details such as the proportions, spacing, and arrangement of the columns.) ▪️The Lost Colossus of Athena🗡️ (The original statue was 11 meters tall, made of ivory inlaid with gold, and held the goddess of victory. Only a Roman replica now exists.) ▪️The Panathenaic Frieze🎠 (A 160-meter-long marble sculpture depicting a procession of Athenian citizens, now in the British Museum) ▪️Optical Bending🌀 (The foundation is arched 6cm in the middle to counteract the illusion of a sunken chasm)
