Parthenon Temple on the Acropolis, Athens · Different wording
Different wording The two terms share 帕神庙 in their simplified forms but are different words. In Taiwan the standard term is 帕德嫩神廟; on the Mainland it is 帕台农神庙 - both point at “Parthenon Temple on the Acropolis, Athens”.
Taiwan’s Ministry of Education dictionaries record 帕德嫩神廟、帕臺農神廟 for this concept. The Mainland standard is among them - the difference is which form each side makes the default.
Neither term carries an HSK or TOCFL level in this table - this pair is dictionary-recorded, not syllabus-derived.
