City guide
Athens
Considered the birthplace of Western philosophy and of the idea of democracy; the rocky hill of the Acropolis has stood above the centre for two and a half thousand years. The Parthenon, the Acropolis Museum and the ancient Agora are within walking distance of one another, making this Greece's densest base for museum and archaeology study visits.
