Athens —
Athens, the cradle of Western civilisation, invites visitors to delve into its rich tapestry of drama, philosophy, and culture. A journey through its ancient streets offers an immersion into the profound history that has shaped the modern world.
Must-sees:
- Acropolis and Parthenon: Stand atop Athens’ iconic hill and admire the Parthenon, a tribute to Athena, alongside the Erechtheion and Propylaea.
- Plaka neighbourhood: Discover a quaint maze of narrow streets, traditional tavernas, and hidden gems beneath the Acropolis.
- Changing of the guards: Witness the hourly ceremony at Constitution Square, steeped in tradition and pageantry.
Culinary culture:
Athens’ culinary scene is a celebration of flavours both traditional and modern. Sample authentic Greek dishes like moussaka, souvlaki, and the ubiquitous tzatziki. Street vendors entice with sesame-crusted koulouri and fresh souvlaki wraps. For a modern twist, explore the burgeoning fine-dining scene, where chefs reinterpret classics using locally-sourced ingredients. Pair your meal with ouzo or a refreshing glass of retsina wine.
A dive deeper:
Beyond the landmarks, uncover Athens’ cultural layers in its lesser-known districts. Anafiotika, a tranquil enclave of whitewashed houses and narrow paths, mirrors the charm of the Cycladic islands. The National Archaeological Museum offers a comprehensive journey through Greek antiquity. Don’t miss the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Centre, a modern architectural marvel hosting world-class performances and exhibitions.
Good to know:
The local currency is the euro (€). Athens enjoys a Mediterranean climate, with spring and autumn being ideal for exploring. The efficient Metro system connects key areas, while taxis and trams provide additional convenience. Comfortable footwear is a must for navigating its historic sites and cobblestone streets.
