Athena Parthenos

The most improbable place to locate the absolute best imitation of the Greek Parthenon would appear to be in the Country Music Capital of the World. Yet, before Nashville was Country Strong it was "The Athens of the South," a city that prided itself as a focal point of learning and illumination. At the point when Nashville facilitated Tennessee's Centennial Exposition in 1897, the city needed to help everybody to remember its "Athens" guarantee, so it manufactured a brief full-measure imitation Parthenon The first is in Athens. The site later wound up Centennial Park, and the brief sanctuary was popular to the point that the city supplanted it with a changeless one out of 1931.Soon from that point forward, the singing hillbillies and honky-tonkers came to town, and the Parthenon has been abnormally strange from that point onward.
