The Erechtheion
This building--not the Parthenon--was actually the most sacred sanctuary of the Acropolis. It is the site where Poseidon struck the ground with his mighty trident and Athena created the olive tree in their contest to have the city named after themselves (Athena won).

Canon Elan 7n, 24-70mm 2.8
