Keep in mind that this isn't meant as a definitive list of the best preserved ancient Greek buildings, but just a selection of ones I found interesting. The Temple of Concordia in Agrigento for example is another very well preserved building, but I didn't want too many similar looking Doric temples 😄
-
ancient greek buildings are so soothing to look at. even in ruin, they still give off chill vibe.
-
Went to Athens about a month or two ago. And saw most of what you showed in the video. And believe me, it’s wayyyyy more impressive when seeing it in person.
-
Sucks that the Parthenon made it all the way to 1687 basically intact, and that it was the Ottomans believing that they could store gunpowder there since the Venetians surely wouldn't aim at the historic building and the Venetians actually not caring about that and aiming their cannons at it anyway that wrecked it...
-
I enjoyed this: beautiful architecture. The Greeks gave us so much.
-
I was most impressed by Hephaestion in Athens, which I had the honor to film recently. Unfortunately, so few ancient monuments of Greece are in good condition. great video, very cool channel! 😮❤️
-
Love Greece and islands beautiful kind People
-
In south Italy or Magna Grecia you can find fine ancient Greek temples
-
Great video, as an Athenian I have been in all these places and l highly recommend to anyone to pay a visit to them when its possible. Athens has so much to offer to a visitor when it comes to sightseeing.
-
Wow that was a nice surprise suddenly hearing my song in this, thank you for choosing it.^^ I watch your channel since quite a while actually, so I also want to use this comment to thank you for your amazing content.
-
It's amazing thinking how much crowded these places used to be. Then, day by day, people just stopped using them, and by time they even forgot what those structures were. It's crazy to think about it.
-
Excellent presentation! Greetings from Delphi, Greece.
-
How lucky we are that these great buildings still stand so many Greek architectural masterpieces In Greece and Anatolia have been reduced into rubble.
-
Your videos are so well put together and relaxing to watch. A true pleasure. Thank you
-
The Doric order is highly underrated in favour of the more decorative ones, but there's something about Doric and especially Greek Doric that draws me to it.
-
Very uplifting to see that the Theatre of Epidaurus is being used for its original purpose once again! I have wondered previously why ancient tempels and buildings have just been left untouched to decay with time, how come no one ever cared for them? I find it remarkable that, while acknowledging the buildings are over 2000 years old, there is almost nothing left of anything.
-
Just imagine if Greece still use the same architecture for every building until today...
-
It'd be WILD to see what the Ancient Greeks would think about their distant progeny still using the amphitheatre.
-
My dads from sicily, near agrigento...there youll find the concorde valley of the temples...magnificent!
-
Glorious buildings. Why do they look so much more impressive than skyscrapers an other modern buildings that are so much bigger? Can't explain it
