Trafalgar's Tour Highlight - Temple of Zeus:

The Temple of Zeus at Olympia, Greece was an ancient Greek temple dedicated to the chief of the gods, Zeus. It housed the renowned statue of Zeus, which was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The Chryselephantine statue was approximately 43 ft high and was made by the sculptor Phidias in his workshop on the site at Olympia. He took about twelve years to complete it. On his head was a sculpted wreath of olive sprays. In his right hand he held a figure of Nike, the goddess of victory, also made from ivory and gold, and in his left hand, a scepter made with many kinds of metal, with an eagle perched on the top. His sandals were made of gold and so was his robe. His garments were carved with animals and with lilies. The throne was decorated with gold, precious stones, ebony, and ivory. The statue was the most famous artistic work in Greece. This Temple is amazing and all Trafalgar tours to Greece visit this historic site.
