What to Do in Athens
ParthenonRemains of an important temple dedicated to goddess Athena. Built entirely of Pentelic marble. Dominant of the city, a must see! |
AcropolisA “sacred rock”, the most important landmark of the city and a majestic symbol of ancient Greek culture. A must-see. |
Temple of HephaesteusThe best preserved ancient Greek temple, part of the Agora. Enshrined to Hephaestus, god of craftmanship and metalwork. A must-see. |
The New Acropolis MuseumAn amazing archaeological museum displaying the findings of the Acropolis archaeological site. Worth visiting. |
Ancient AgoraAn ancient public space consists of various monuments, and ruins that are worth exploring. Site with a powerful atmosphere. |
Panathenaic StadiumMagnificent stadium that hosted the first modern Olympic games in 1869. It is unique as it is entirely made of white marble. |
Arch of HadrianA monument erected in the honour of the Roman emperor Hadrian. Affected by the pollution, but still well-preserved. |
Tower of the WindsOctagonal marble clock tower located on the Agora. There are images of eight wind deities and sundials. Still well preserved. |
Stoa of AttalosStoa – a covered walkway typical for ancient Greek architecture. This is the most impressive one, now houses the museum of Agora. |
Theater of DionysosThe largest and oldest amphitheatre in Athens build for festivals honouring Dionysios, god of wine and wealth. |
Mars HillMarble hill named after the Greek God of War. Many visitors are attracted to this hill because St. Paul had his famous sermon here. |
Odeon of Herodes Atticus5,000-seat amphitheater built in in 161 AD. Summer is the best time for visit, many performances take place here. |
The ErechtheumAncient richly decorated Ionic temple with an unusual design. Later was rather quirkily used as a church and a Turkish harem. |
Lycabettus HillLegendary limestone hill dominating Athens. Quite a steep climb but it is worth the effort. Or you can use the funicular. |
Choragic Monument of LysicratesA circular marble monument built in Corinthian style. Well preserved famous statue with numerous copies around the world. |
Temple of Olympian ZeusSection walls – ruins of the Temple of Zeus. There's not much left, but still worth visiting. |
