Mount Olympus


Mount Olympus is the highest mountain in Greece. It is the heavenly abode of the Greek gods and the site of throne of Zeus. The gods of Mount Olympus are Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Hades, Demeter, Hestia, Apollo, Artemis, Ares, Aphrodite, Athena, Hermes, and Hephaestus. These gods and goddesses did not necessarily all live on Mount Olympus, but it is clear that the Greeks understood the power of the sacred mountain.
