The Parthenon took just 9 years to build and originally contained a 40-foot gold-and-ivory statue of Athena. The Acropolis has served as a temple complex, a fortress, a church, a mosque, and an ammunition storage depot over its 2,500-year history. The hill's flat top measures roughly 490 by 230 feet. A major ongoing restoration project, begun in 1975, uses original marble from Mount Pentelicus. Athens receives about 5 million tourists per year, most visiting the Acropolis.
