Top 7 travel tips in Athens
1. Explore Athens' oldest neighbourhood
Located at the foot of the Acropolis, the pretty Plaka district is the oldest in the city, and it retains the allure of traditional Greece with narrow serpentine streets, gorgeous blue and white century-old facades, and time-honoured taverns where you can gorge on delectable local delights such as moussaka and gyros. Book a villa in Athens and discover all the magic this place has to offer.
2. Get a panoramic view of the city at Mount Lycabeto
At 227 meters, Mount Lycabeto administers the best viewpoint in the city, which stretches out across the undulating hills like a giant urban carpet. Come an hour before nightfall to catch the dramatic sunset behind the Acropolis.
3. People watch at the Central Market
It is said that to really get to know a city, you must visit its markets. Get the perfect villa for rent in Athens for you and get close up to the real lives of the locals at Central Market. Housed in a 19th-century neoclassical building, the market oozes rebellious Eastern flavour, with vendors bellowing at full voice and hordes of market-goers pushing their way through the narrow market's aisles.
4. Soak in the multicultural atmosphere of Psiri
Psiri is Athens' trendy district and is known as the Soho of Athens. Locals flock to this district to sip on a cocktail, shop in designer stores or simply take a quiet walk away from the hustle and bustle of the heavily touristy districts.
5. Take a picnic at the park
The National Garden is an expansive park situated behind the parliament building. A luscious sanctuary within the big concrete city, it is big enough that you will find your own sanctuary. So, bring a picnic and enjoy an authentic holiday experience!
6. Visit the site of the first modern Olympic Games
If you are a sports history buff then you simply must visit the Panathenaic Stadium, home to the first Modern Olympic Games. The only stadium in the world made from white marble, it has an impressive capacity of 60.000 spectators.
7. Take in an all-Greek performance at Dora's Stratou Theatre
Dora's Stratou Theatre hosts a 90-minute traditional Greek show consisting of 75 dancers, musicians, and singers. The performance features songs and dances from all periods of Greek history. Don't miss the opportunity to live this experience and rent a private villa in Athens.
