The Acropolis Museum, Athens
The Acropolis museum is filled with archaeological finds dating back to ancient Athens. You can admire the Parthenon Frieze and the floors are transparent so you can walk over history as well as through it.

The British Museum, London
If you want to see the original pieces of the Parthenon, though, you’ll have to head to the British Museum in London. You will also find 8 million other objects, and the Rosetta Stone.
