Tennessee Parthenon

One of the attractions in the Nashville area is a full-sized recreation of the Parthenon.
While the original Parthenon was completed in 438 BC, this replica was completed in 1925.
It's definitely worth a visit if you're in the area. Next week I'll show you inside.

    Do you know why a replica like this was built in Nashville? It looks so out of place (even though the building is very nice). #OurWorldTuesday

    My friend Al,

    Parthenon is the limit of human civilization. Parthenon symbolize the human perfection through the pass of time.

    Thank you for sharing these photos.

    Impressive recreation of one of the most representative monuments of Greco-Roman culture. The truth is that in your photos appears majestic.
    I suppose you will know that in its measurements is the golden ratio, which appears in innumerable works of humanity.

    hugs Alabama
