Perfect Vacation in Athens
By Milan Matchev
The secret of having a perfect vacation in Europe is to take in a couple of the tourist highlights and delve beneath the city of Athens. Choose Athens if you want to be brimmed with grand sights, celebrated cuisine and legendary nightlife. Athens is now a prominently wealthier, more sophisticated cosmopolitan city with the new art and leisure precincts around town, and in the lifestyles of the hedonistic, trend-conscious Athenians. With its stylish new restaurants, shops and revamped hotels continue to open, Athens continue to be as of Europe’s safest and liveliest cities. It is the oldest city in Europe, yet still in a state of transition. One thing that most visitors would be amazed is its vigorous street life and relaxed lifestyle. The once hipster bars and large warehouses were converted into performance spaces that herded the streets among Byzantine churches, traditional taverns, and toppled columns. Tourists could simply relax for endless coffees and evening strolls, dine out and savor the city’s nightlife. Never miss the chance to explore the city. Against all odds, the city experience is more energetic and exciting than ever! Here is a list of great places in Athens: Acropolis It is the most famous of the Western world’s ancient sights. Thousands of tourists are continuously astonish as they climb the crystalline steps in Parthenon. They said that you can stick your nose to the windows on the top floor of the new Acropolis Museum to see the Parthenon in its full majesty! Plaka Located on the slopes of the Acropolis, Plaka is the city’s oldest neighborhood. Great cafes, boutiques and fascinating architecture are overflowing this place. Thus, it became the popular tourist haunt. You can also have the chance to discover cafes and bars and get some strong coffee or even stronger ouzo (a liquor flavored with anise) as you will likely be lost in its maze streets. Varvakios Agora This is Athens’ central market where infinite activities took place. If you are good in kitchen, this is the perfect place to shop and haggle everything you need from olive oil to slabs of meat. Odeon of Herodes Atticus The ancient Odeon of Herodes Atticus is a setting to watch Homer’s lines acted out, see contemporary dance moves, and hear classical orchestras. Visit this unbelievable venue to witness world-class performances. Perivoli Tou Ouranou Complete your visit to Athens by dropping to this club that is filled with the sounds of violins, mandolins and guitars pelting out traditional music; it’s at once haunting and lively. |
