Constructed Comparison

I am comparing the Temple of Athena and The White House. The White House is of course everybody knows built to be a house for the president and other important congress members. The White House to some people brings back many memories. The White House is mostly considered as the home of the president. The White house was finished being built in 1809, and it was made of an old mansion in Pennsylvania. The White house has been a very special place for all the presidents who have lived there. Some presidents spend most of their term there. This place will remain a symbol of Washington D.C as well as our whole country. The great difference between the White House and the Temple of Athena is the difference between the place in which they were located and the year they were built. The Temple of Athena Nike was an ancient greek building of course, but it wasn't just that. This building was a place where people came here to praise the Goddess Athena. Millions of different people have praised the Goddess Athena at this sacred building. This building was represented by many people, but most people today use this building tp take pictures of and use them on their computer screens as backgrounds, but to some people this building represented way more than just a place to praise. Most people do not understand this but if they research it they might understand. The Temple of Athena is also a very different as well. It was located in Parthenon and it was built around 427 B.C and it was a great sight when it was finished. The Temple was built out of a gorgeous White Marble. If you saw it in person you would love it because it was just a great sight and it was a great building to take pictures of, because of all the different angles you could take pictures. The building was built in resemblance of the goddess Nike. The building had an amazing texture to the way it was built. The Temple is a great remembrance of Ancient Greece. But the Temple is not just a symbol of Ancient Greece it is also a symbol of Goddess Nike. I enjoy researching these two buildings is because they are very interesting to learn about and to talk about it. I hope you enjoy this article because you will learn a lot from it.
