Monument to the Unknown SoldierRight in front of the Greek Parliament building, on Amalias Avenue, is the Monument of the Unknown Soldier. It was built in 1929-1930 and is dedicated to all those who lost their lives fighting for Greece. The monument is guarded by the Presidential Guard (Evzones), who wears the traditional costume of the 19th century, with the characteristic fustanella and the tsarouchia. The change of the guard takes place every hour, while the official change takes place every Sunday morning with a very impressive ritual, gathering a large number of tourists. Then, the Evzones are directed, after the raising and submission of the flag to the Acropolis, with an imposing formation at the Monument of the Unknown Soldier and with strictly "choreographed" movements, they change in pairs in the guarding of the monument.

ZappeionInsightful and keen, the benefactor Evangelos Zappas finances in 1859 the construction of a building to host exhibitions and services on the occasion of the first Olympic Games of 1896. After many adventures and the death of Zappa, the Greek government grants land next to the National Park. The emblematic neoclassical building with a Corinthian-style propylon, impressive gardens, and an overall harmonious structure was inaugurated in 1888 with a study by Theophilos Hansen. The head of Evangelis Zapas was built into the peristyle of the Megaron after his wish.

Acropolis MuseumThe Acropolis Museum, one of the most important in the world, includes unique masterpieces, mainly original works of archaic and classical Greek art, which are directly connected to the sacred rock of the Acropolis. The visitor can see up close works of reference points, such as the Caryatids of the Erechtheion and the sculptural decoration of the Parthenon. The incorporation of its frieze in the core of the Museum, the placement of the metopes between the columns, the development of the forms of the two pediments of the temple, and the merging of the original sculptures with copies of those found in museums abroad (British, Louvre), gives the possibility for the first time of a complete view of the sculptural decoration of the Parthenon.

AcropolisNext, we will move toward the sacred rock of the Acropolis, a symbol of Athens, which dominates the center of the modern city and is visible from every corner. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, it has been inhabited since prehistoric times and was gradually formed in the pre-eminent sanctuary of Athens, dedicated mainly to its patron goddess, Athena. At the top stands the Parthenon, the leading creation of classical architecture, the Propylaea, the Erechtheion, and the temple of Athena Nike. On the slopes of the rock, there are caves, sanctuaries, and monuments of different eras, with the most famous being the ancient theater of Dionysus and the Roman Conservatory of Herodes Atticus.
-
Ancient Agora of AthensThe Ancient Agora, northwest of the Acropolis, was the center of the city in classical and Hellenistic times. The most important public buildings and sanctuaries were erected in it and intense administrative, political, judicial, commercial, social, and religious activity developed. The main monuments of the area are the Stoa of Attalos, which today houses the Museum of the Ancient Agora, the temple of Hephaestus, the Dome, and the Bouleuterion. It is noteworthy that in order to unveil the monuments, more than 400 newer buildings had to be demolished.
-
PlakaPlaka and Monastiraki, the most tourist areas of Athens, fascinate with their picturesque corners while giving history lessons. The alleys of Plaka that reach the rock of the Acropolis, the island neighborhood of Anafiotika, the blooming bougainvillea, the taverns, and the shops with tourist items create the perfect setting for endless walks. And Monastiraki is offered for walks in the innumerable small shops and in the counters of the small sellers. The traffic peaks every Sunday, when the big open-air market, Yusurum, is set up here.

Lykavittos (Mount Lycabettus)The hill was a rock that the goddess Athena was carrying in her hands and it fell to her in Athens when she heard the bad news that a crow carried to her. We will take a ride with the cable car up to the top of Lycabettus, adorned with the church of Agios Georgios, see the whole Basin and if the weather is good even the Saronic Gulf. . At the foot of the rock is carved the small church of Agios Isidoros. If you use the teleferic the fee is 10 euros both ways.

Lake VouliagmeniThe magnificent lake of Vouliagmeni, a place of special natural beauty, is one of the recognized thermal springs of Greece. Its brackish waters have a constant temperature all year round (22-29 degrees Celsius) and are constantly renewed, both by the sea and by the underground thermal springs, creating ideal conditions for a natural and unique thermal spa experience.

Temple of PoseidonWe are heading now to Cape Sounion which is located on the Southern end of the Attic Peninsula. According to Greek Mythology, King Aegeus would have thrown himself from the cliffs here, thinking his son Theseus was dead. Theseus went to fight the Minotaur and promised to change the black sails of his ship to white in case of victory. Full of joy from his victory, Theseus forgot to change the sails of his ship. When his father saw the black sails, he thought his son was dead and committed suicide. From this time, the Aegean Sea is named after him! At Cape Sounion, you’ll admire a temple dedicated to Poseidon, the god of the Sea and protector of the sailors. We will admire the most breathtaking panoramic view of the Saronic Gulf when the sunlight illuminates the temple’s marble columns!
