Flying to Athens: tips and information for your trip
Athens, the capital of Greece is a heady mix of the classic and modern, the grungy and the civil, the historic and the contemporary. As one of the world’s oldest cities, Athens has a history that dates back around 3,400 years and conjures up images of Greek deities, colossal marble structures and philosophical discourse.
Designated the first European “Capital of Culture” in 1985, the Greek capital dominates the region of Attica from its location overlooking the Eastern Mediterranean Sea. Home to two UNESCO World Heritage sites, the cultural and architectural heritage of Athens is unrivalled. Modern Athenian life takes place amongst centuries-old Byzantine, Roman, Ottoman and neoclassical structures in a city recognized as the birthplace of Western civilization. A center for the arts, learning and philosophy with an undeniable edginess and vibrancy situated on the Eastern Mediterranean, Athens has something for everyone.
Athens is also home to many art galleries and museums and the symbolic archaeological sites of Plato’s Academy and Aristotle’s Lyceum. If you are looking for a little retail therapy, there is a diverse range of locales including colorful bazaars and lively street markets to chic suburban malls.
