• Caryatid porch on the Erechtheion, where huge carved stone women stand in for columns; the ones on the rock are copies, and five originals are in the Acropolis Museum
• A hilltop site: the temples stand on a rock 150 m above sea level, so plan for a climb
• Book a time slot first on the Hellenic Heritage ticket site, even for kids' free tickets, and bring ID for anyone entering free

A flat-topped rock 150 m above sea level, crowned by temples built in the fifth century BC: the Parthenon, the Propylaea gateway, the Erechtheion and the small Temple of Athena Nike. Kids can spot the Erechtheion porch held up by stone women (the caryatids), and the ancient Theatre of Dionysus sits on the south slope.

Suits school-age kids who know a few Greek myths more than toddlers.
