Good to see a temple with its roof intact in places. Gives context to other sites in Athens. Sited in a peaceful spot right next to busy Monastiraki. An interesting visit.

It is really well preserved. No scaffolding. Beautiful pictures can be taken. Surrounded with vegetation in the ancient Agora, it is very impressive and well worth the visit. It does not get crowded.

The most complete Greek temple I have seen. I only wish I could have gone inside. It is inside the old agora area, but can be seen from the acropolis. If you see this temple it gives a better idea of what the Parthenon was...More

We visited the temple when we visited the ancient Agora. It is the best building in the ancient Agora which is mainly ruins. It is worth visiting on the multi-site ticket (at a cost of €30 per adult; children free). A beautiful building, lovely colours...More

Within the Ancient Agora which is well worth a visit anyway. For whatever reason it is one of (or the) most complete temples around. Probably helped that it was actually used until recently. Unfortunately we couldn't go inside. Since you are there for the wonderful...More

You can see this temple from atop the Acropolis and wonder, 'what is that?' Well, it is a nearly perfectly intact ancient temple located inside the Ancient Agora (a must-see). A wonderful example of ancient Greek architecture, later used as a church. There are wonderful...More

The Parthenon gets all the glory, by the Temple of Hephaestus (part of the Ancient Agora site) was way cooler, and much better preserved. Do not leave Athens without seeing this!
