What to visit in Athens

Athens offers a plethora of must-see sights. Start your adventure with a visit to the Acropolis, where the Parthenon dominates the city from above, telling centuries of history. Continue to the Ancient Agora, the political and social heart of ancient Greece, and don't miss out on the Acropolis Museum, one of the most renowned museums in the world. Stroll through Plaka, Athens' oldest neighbourhood, and you'll be immersed in a picturesque atmosphere of cobbled alleys and craft shops. Athens' seafront promenade, stretching from Faliro to Glyfada, is perfect for a sunset stroll, with its well-equipped beaches and modern seafront bars. If you want to venture beyond the city, a day trip to the Temple of Poseidon, with its breathtaking view of the Aegean Sea, is an experience not to be missed.
