These two famous cities of the ancient world come alive in re-creations
of their monuments and buildings. Athens--the home of philosophers and
artists. And Corinth--the strategic gateway to Greece.

Zeus, the greatest god on Mount Olympus, and Poseidon, powerful god of
the sea, were honored by these two gigantic tributes in stone. Not only
are they re-created for us, but we learn how the giant statues were
built.

of the famous and influential oracles who saw into the future. We see
