ParthenonWorld Wonder: Parthenon

Tech Required: Drama and Poetry

Production Cost: 250

What it Does: Provides a Free Great Work of Art of the Current Era in the one slot it contains. The building itself provides an additional +4 Culture and 0 GPP.

Strategies
The Great Work of Art you get when building this (likely in the Classical Era when it comes) can be very handy in completing Theming Bonuses in other buildings later in the game. The player who builds Parthenon will likely be the first to start generating Tourism and offsetting their opponent's cumulative Culture by a bit. Build this in the same City in which you'll put your Artists' Guilds and later Hermitage to maximize Cultural output. It's not a must-have, but definitely a helpful Wonder that will generate hundreds of Tourism and thousands of Culture over its lifetime.
