Marvel at the sheer scale of the remaining Corinthian columns, which convey the ambition of the ancient world.
In their own words: “Standing at the temple of Olympian Zeus is the first time you really feel the weight of the past. Construction started in the 6th century BC, but it actually took over 600 years to finish.”
Marvel at the colossal ruins of this once-grand temple, dedicated to the king of the Olympian gods, and imagine its former glory.
