WESTERN CIVILIZATION’S ROOTS
Athens is a collection of villages, with different characters and atmospheres.
Visit the Acropolis and the surrounding area of Plaka, then get away from the maddening crowds to take in the magical views in the olive groves adorning the hills of central Athens, enjoying the peace surrounded by the sound of cicadas and crickets.
And under the shadow of a canopy of vines, enjoy Greece’s world-renowned traditional food in a taverna in Monastiraki, an area known for ancient and Roman ruins.
