20 Things to do in Athens Greece Top Attractions Travel Guide Transcript:
Well, good afternoon from sunny Athens. We are currently exploring the Greek capital. We recently actually spent a few days traveling around Meteora and now we're finishing up our trip here in Athens. We've got two full days to explore the city which isn't a lot of time but we're going to try to do our best.
Our first stop was one of the most recognized sights in Athens - the Parthenon, which was dedicated to the goddess Athena who was seen as the patron of Athens.
After sunset we lingered atop Mount Lycabettus for some night views of the city before taking the funicular down to the bottom. Seeing the Acropolis all lit up at night was a pretty cool sight!
Next up we visited the Temple of Zeus which once housed the statue of Zeus, and was considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
When it comes to shopping, there are a few different options. We made our way to Monastiraki, which is one of the principal shopping districts in Athens. Here we visited both the Flea Market and the antique shops in the area.
The Agora was the central spot in ancient Greek city-states, and it is where people gathered.
So we are wrapping up our time here in Athens. Any surprises or final thoughts to share? Yeah, something that really surprised me were just the amount of stray animals that I saw on the streets.
I also thought there was really good dining options as well. We had a number of really good Greek meals and also some really good International food too.
Final thoughts, I think this is a really underrated capital in Europe. A lot like Warsaw in Poland so if you have an opportunity to visit Athens in Greece definitely do so.
So what did you think of Athens? Well, I thought it was a really cool city and I actually had a great time here. It kind of reminded me a little bit of Tel Aviv with the Mediterranean feel but also Berlin because it is very artsy and gritty. So it's a really cool place to check out. Great food, lots of attractions. You have a mix of antiquity with urban.
And that's a wrap for Athens! We hope you enjoyed this city guide and that it'll come in handy when you plan your own trip.
This is part of our Travel in Greece series. We're making a series of videos showcasing Greek culture, Greek arts, Greek foods & Greek cuisine.

Athens is the capital and largest city of Greece. Athens dominates the Attica region and is one of the world's oldest cities, with its recorded history spanning over 3,400 years, and its earliest human presence starting somewhere between the 11th and 7th millennia BC.[Classical Athens was a powerful city-state that emerged in conjunction with the seagoing development of the port of Piraeus, which had been a distinct city prior to its 5th century BC incorporation with Athens. A centre for the arts, learning and philosophy, home of Plato's Academy and Aristotle's Lyceum, it is widely referred to as the cradle of Western civilization and the birthplace of democracy, largely because of its cultural and political impact on the European continent, and in particular the Romans. In modern times, Athens is a large cosmopolitan metropolis and central to economic, financial, industrial, maritime, political and cultural life in Greece. In 2015, Athens was ranked the world's 29th richest city by purchasing power and the 67th most expensive[ in a UBS study.
Athènes est la capitale et la plus grande ville de la Grèce. Athènes domine la région de l'Attique et est l'une des plus anciennes villes du monde, avec son histoire enregistrée couvrant plus de 3400 ans et sa première présence humaine à partir quelque part entre le 11ème et 7ème millénaire avant JC. Classical Athens était une ville-état puissant qui a émergé dans conjointement avec le développement en mer du port du Pirée, qui avait été une ville distincte avant son 5ème siècle avant JC incorporation à Athènes. Un centre pour les arts, l'apprentissage et la philosophie, la maison de l'Académie de Platon et Lycée d'Aristote, il est largement considéré comme le berceau de la civilisation occidentale et le berceau de la démocratie, en grande partie en raison de son impact culturel et politique sur le continent européen, et notamment les Romains. Dans les temps modernes, Athènes est une grande métropole cosmopolite et centrale à la vie économique, financier, industriel, maritime, politique et culturelle en Grèce. En 2015, Athènes a été classé 29e ville la plus riche du monde par le pouvoir et le 67e le plus cher [achat dans une étude UBS.

The Acropolis Museum, along with the National Archaeological Museum, preserves sculptures, vases, jewelry and more from Ancient Greece.
HYDRA GREECE - BEST ISLAND DAY TRIP from ATHENS - vlog
Wondering which island to visit on a day trip from Athens? Look no further than the beautiful island of Hydra.
From the Athens port of Piraeus, we take the ferry on an hour and a half journey across the Aegean Sea to Hydra, an island filled with history, beautiful ocean, narrow cobblestone alleyways, hilltop views, cats, al-fresco Greek dining, water sports, relaxation, and old movie charm.
Best of all, the island is traffic-free and does not have any cars.
Hydra is rich in history. We visit the island's historic Greek Orthodox churches, then venture to the top of the hills to capture the views.

FIRST TIME IN ATHENS - WHAT TO DO | GREECE
Today was my first time to visit Athens in Greece! I was amazed on how beautiful this city is!
If you don't know what to do in Athens this video will show you the best things to do in Athens and what to do in Athens on your first day!
There are many things to do in Athens and today I went to visit a few things to do in Athens. The main places I visited were the City center and one of the best things to do in athens travel guide is the Acropolis of Athens.
As there are many places to visit in Athens and I only had 1 day it was impossible for me to see all the places to visit in Athens so I went to visit the most important places in Athens.
Doing the acropolis athens tour is advisable as you get to know a lot about the history of athens travel guide and the acropolis.
Athens is the capital of Greece. It was also at the heart of Ancient Greece, a powerful civilization and empire. The city is still dominated by 5th-century BC landmarks, including the Acropolis, a hilltop citadel topped with ancient buildings like the colonnaded Parthenon temple. The Acropolis Museum, along with the National Archaeological Museum, preserves sculptures, vases, jewelry and more from Ancient Greece.
The Acropolis of Athens is an ancient citadel located on a rocky outcrop above the city of Athens and contains the remains of several ancient buildings of great architectural and historic significance, the most famous being the Parthenon. The word acropolis is from the Greek words ἄκρον (akron, highest point, extremity) and πόλις (polis, city). Although the term acropolis is generic and there are many other acropoleis in Greece, the significance of the Acropolis of Athens is such that it is commonly known as The Acropolis without qualification. During ancient times it was known also more properly as Cecropia, after the legendary serpent-man, Cecrops, the supposed first Athenian king.
