Airport travel guide

The capital of not just Greece, but, in some sense, Western civilization as a whole, Athens is as historic a destination as they come. From ancient landmarks to medieval gems and the modern art scene, the city has something for every visitor to enjoy. These are five of the city’s most notable landmarks:
- The Acropolis. The heart of old Athens, the Acropolis is naturally the most visited place in the city. In addition to landmarks like Parthenon, many notable sites are also located around the Acropolis and can be conveniently visited during the same visit. The Acropolis is in the center of town, just a ten-minute walk or a five-minute drive away from Syntagma Square.
- The Museum of Ancient Greek Technology. As could be expected, Athens is home to a number of museums dedicated to the ancient Hellenic world. While not as large and immediately impressive as some others, this little cultural institution dedicated to the inventive genius of the ancient inhabitants of the area is one of the most interesting. Divided into three sections, the museum explores Ancient Greek technology, as well as the unusual musical instruments that were popular at the time.
- Kaisariani Monastery. Another historically important place, but dating to significantly more recent times, this monastery was built at the turn of the 11th and 12th centuries when the area was ruled by the Byzantines. Despite being more than 900 years old, it continues to perform its original function and is open for worshippers and visitors alike. The monastery is located in a beautiful place on the foothills of Mount Hymettus and is surrounded by a vast green area that is a popular destination for walks. The drive from the city center takes 30 to 40 minutes.
- The Ancient Agora and the Temple of Hephaestus. The Ancient Agora was the main civic center in Ancient Greece. Philosophers like Socrates and Plato would walk through the streets and markets, sharing wisdom with everyone they encountered. Look out for the Stoa of Attalos, a colonnaded marketplace once home to over 40 stores that today houses the Agora Museum. The Temple of Hephaestus was built around the same time as the Parthenon (450 BC) and had a similar design. It is dedicated to Hephaestus, God of Fire, and Athena Ergane, Goddess of Pottery and Crafts.
- National Archaeological Museum of Greece. Athens being the cradle of modern civilization, is it any wonder that the city is home to one of the most impressive archaeological museums on the planet? Although always busy with visitors, especially during weekends and holidays, the museum is very much worth your time thanks to its vast collections of Classical Hellenic artifacts.
