Start your Athens sightseeing journey with the iconic Acropolis, a historical marvel that promises to elevate your day. This ancient hill offers a captivating array of landmarks, including the Odeon of Herodes Atticus, the Temple of Athena Nike, the majestic Propylaea gateway, the Erechtheum, and the renowned Parthenon, dedicated to the virgin goddess Athena.
The Propylaea serves as the grand entrances to the sacred precinct dedicated to Athena, the city’s patron goddess. Crafted from Pentelic marble by the architect Mnesicles, their avant-garde design is remarkable. Positioned southwest of the Propylaea, atop a rampart safeguarding the primary entrance to the Acropolis…
The Theatre of Dionysus, situated at the base of the Athenian Acropolis, holds significant historical importance as it is widely regarded as the world’s first theatre.
The Parthenon, dedicated to the virgin goddess Athena, stands as the enduring symbol of Athenian democracy and Western civilization.
The Hellenic Parliament, known as the Voulí ton Ellínon in Greek, serves as the legislative body of Greece and is housed within the historic Old Royal Palace, commanding views over Syntagma Square in Athens.
As the paramount democratic institution, it embodies the representation of citizens through elected Members of Parliament. Visitors can witness the ceremonial Changing of the Guard (Evzones) in front of the former palace, now the Parliament House, situated prominently above Athens’ central square.
