Ionic Architecture

The Ionic architecture was the second style that Ancient Greece used. The style was thinner and more elegant than the Doric. The top of the column was displayed more scroll like and very decorative, they are also more fluted than the Doric style. They used the Ionic style to build The Temple of Athena Nike, The Temple of Apollo at Didyma, and Erechtheum. These structures were built between 300BC and 405BC.
