About Athens
Athens is the capital of Greece and the cradle of Western civilization. Ancient temples and remnants from the Greek Empire have stood the test of time and can be observed today in all their glory.
The Acropolis and the Parthenon (dedicated to goddess Athena) are perhaps the most famous attractions. They are emblems of the city and constitute one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. There is also the Roman Agora and the Tower of the Winds, which saw the great Socrates and Plato pass between their walls.
Another important building in the city is the Olympieion, also known as the Temple of Olympian Zeus. With a tour inside the temple, you can admire the two colossal statues of Zeus and the Roman emperor Hadrian. We also recommend visiting the National Archaeological Museum, the Acropolis Museum (visit the last floor for a beautiful view) and the Benaki Museum of Greek Culture.
