What to visit when in Athens
Athens, capital of Greece, is an energetic city, managing to offer both modern, cool vibes and an historical echo. Birthplace of democracy, philosophy and drama, strolling in the city of Athens is like time-traveling to the past.
Lose no time and book a transfer service to visit of course Acropolis and Parthenon, the greatest symbol of glory that Ancient Athens met during the 5th Century BC. The ancient temple dedicated to the Olympian Goddess Athena is a landmark absolutely worth visiting in person. In Acropolis Museum, artefacts taken from Acropolis hill can be found displayed here; the museum is built on ancient ruins as well, so glass floors are featured in order to display everything.
If history is indeed your passion, then you can also search for the Ancient Agora, where the philosopher Socrates used to pose his famous questions, as an annoying “gadfly”, the National Archaeological Museum, displaying priceless collections from Neolithic Era to Classical Period, or the Benaki Museum for a more recently side of history and art.
Another famous destination worth spending some time as well is the amazing Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center. Home to the National Opera and Library, this newly-built centre of Renzo Piano is surrounded by a beautiful big park, hosting a wide range of cultural events and exhibitions, several of which are free.
Get to know contemporary, cool and colorful Athens, by strolling in Plaka and Anafiotika, listening to street musicians and performers and of course eating mezedes (small dishes served as appetizers) and drinking ouzo and tsipouro. Psiri and Thission are vibrant areas with energetic nightlife for the young at heart.
