About Athens

Athens is one of the oldest cities in the world ? continuously inhabited for over 3,000 years and the birthplace of ideas that shaped the entire course of Western civilisation. The city of Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle; the city where democracy was born and drama was invented; the city whose architectural achievements still stand as benchmarks of human ingenuity millennia later. Today it is a vibrant, sprawling metropolis of four million people that has reinvented itself in recent decades as a dynamic destination of incredible food, thriving street art, world-class museums, and a warm, generous culture that makes every visitor feel immediately welcome.

Top Tourist Attractions in Athens

The Acropolis

The supreme achievement of ancient Greek architecture, the Acropolis crowns Athens on a flat-topped rock visible from across the entire city. The Parthenon ? temple to the goddess Athena and one of the most recognisable buildings ever constructed ? stands at its summit alongside the Erechtheion, the Propylaia gateway, and the Temple of Athena Nike in a complex that represents the pinnacle of classical Greek art and civilisation.

Acropolis Museum

Opened in 2009 at the foot of the sacred rock, the Acropolis Museum is a triumph of contemporary museum design housing the finest surviving sculptures and artefacts from the Acropolis itself. The top-floor Parthenon Gallery ? where the surviving frieze sections are displayed in their original orientation with the monument visible through the glass walls behind ? is one of the great museum experiences in the world.

Ancient Agora

The beating civic heart of ancient Athens, the Agora was the marketplace, meeting place, and centre of democratic life where Socrates debated, citizens voted, and the ideas that shaped Western civilisation were first argued aloud. The remarkably well-preserved Stoa of Attalos museum and the Temple of Hephaestus bring the ancient city to vivid life.

National Archaeological Museum

The greatest museum of ancient Greek art and archaeology in the world, the National Archaeological Museum houses an awe-inspiring collection of over 11,000 objects spanning prehistoric through Roman periods. The Mask of Agamemnon, the Antikythera Mechanism, and the extraordinary bronze statue of Poseidon are among the highlights of a collection that no lover of history should miss.

Plaka Neighbourhood

The oldest continuously inhabited neighbourhood in Athens, Plaka tumbles down the northern and eastern slopes of the Acropolis in a labyrinth of narrow, flower-filled streets lined with neoclassical houses, Byzantine churches, open-air tavernas, and artisan shops. It is the most charming and atmospheric corner of the city, magical in both daylight and after dark.

Monastiraki Flea Market

The sprawling market district of Monastiraki, in the shadow of the Acropolis, is a sensory delight of antiques, vintage clothing, street food, and general organised chaos. Sunday is the best day to visit, when the flea market extends across the surrounding streets and the whole neighbourhood takes on a gloriously vibrant, improvisational character.

Best Time to Visit Athens

Spring (April?June) and autumn (September?October) are the ideal times to visit Athens ? warm and sunny without the punishing heat of high summer, and with thinner crowds at the major archaeological sites. July and August bring intense heat that can make outdoor sightseeing genuinely challenging, but also long evenings, outdoor cinema screenings, and a city in full summer mode. Winter is mild by northern European standards and offers the lowest fares and most peaceful access to the monuments.

Getting to Athens

Athens International Airport Eleftherios Venizelos (ATH) handles direct flights to hundreds of European and international destinations and is connected to the city centre by Metro, bus, and taxi in under an hour. flightsgallery searches all available routes and airlines to ensure you always find the best possible fares on flights to Athens.

Know Your City

Athens' major historical sites are clustered within comfortable walking distance of one another in the city centre, making it an excellent city to explore on foot. The Athens Metro is modern, clean, and efficient, with stations that often double as impromptu archaeological museums displaying artefacts uncovered during construction. Trams and trolleybuses extend the network further across the wider city.
