the Parthenon is a BEAUTIFULL sightsei`r, and it is just the best thing for families, roadtrips, limited edition must! this is the best thing that you wil sea in Tennisee... no lie!
Not only is the outside amazing, but the artwork inside is simply breathtaking. Best of all, it's only $5 and takes an hour give or take to walk through. My jaw dropped when I saw the Athena statue. No words can describe it.

VERY CALMING PLACE TO VISIT
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/03/06
LOVELY ARCITECTURE, SMALL BUT GREAT PLACE TO SPEND A COUPLE OF HOURS WANDERING AROUND THE ART GALLERY, THEN REST BY THE POND AND GARDENS. MIGHT BE AN IDEA TO TAKE A PICNIC AND OUTDOOR ENTERTAINMENT TO ENJOY THE GROUNDS
