In 447 BC, he committed the new empire and its wealth to its construction. He brought together three unique artistic talents, Phidias the sculptor, and architects Ictinus and Callicrates. Together they imagined a complex of temples and public places to be built along classical ideals but exceeding them in scale and perfection. Amazingly they worked without architectural plans or drawings as we understand them today. Instead they were guided by a set of codes and principles dictated by the art of geometry.

公元前447年,他全力建设新帝国,由聚敛财富到兴建土木。他请来了三位不同凡响的艺术天才-雕刻家斐迪亚斯,建筑师艾士提努、卡利克拉提斯。他们一起设想如何将神殿和公共场所组合到一起,并决定沿用古典设计,但将在规模和美学上进行突破。神奇的是,他们当时既没有诸如我们今天的建筑计划也没有蓝图,而是依据一套几何学的符号和法则来施工。
