Visit an ancient city with distinct modern flair. Athens is a place where astonishing ruins share center stage with today’s high-rises, and where archaeological digs proceed alongside construction for a new subway.
On your visit to Athens, be sure to take in the star attraction, the Acropolis, as it rises 200 feet above the city, capped by the magnificent Parthenon. Best seen early in the morning before the crowds arrive, the Acropolis is home to several other exquisite temples as well.
