• Temple of Olympian Zeus - Situated between the Acropolis and the Ilissos River, the grand Olympeion was among the most magnificent ancient temples dedicated to Zeus and one of the most renowned marble structures in the ancient world. The discussion will focus on the Temple and its tales from an external perspective.

• Acropolis - The most significant and exquisite sanctuary of ancient Athens, primarily devoted to its patron, the goddess Athena, has been a central feature of the city for millennia. The Acropolis monuments (the Parthenon, the Temple of Athena Nike, the Erechtheion, the Propylaea, the Theater of Dionysus,…) are all exceptional masterpieces of ancient architecture, influencing art and culture for centuries while harmonizing with their natural surroundings.

• Syntagma - Athens’ central square is dominated by the Greek Parliament (formerly the Royal Palace) and is characterized by the vibrant energy generated by the constant flow of people through the city’s busiest crossroads.

• Plaka - Souvenir shops, ancient monuments, and the city’s oldest area draw the largest number of tourists in Athens to this charming cluster of narrow alleys just beneath the towering stone sides of the Acropolis.

• Monastiraki - Hadrian’s library, excellent street food, and an underground river hidden in a metro station await those who visit this antique and flea market area in search of a bargain or a glimpse of one of the city’s few remaining Ottoman mosques.

• Psiri - Once a neighborhood where local artisans worked in small shops, Psiri is now one of the city’s most popular spots for evening dining and drinks. It is also one of the best places to explore the city’s latest street art.

• Varvakios Central Municipal Market - Athens’ food market, bustling with locals seeking fresh produce, meats, and fish. Despite its lively atmosphere, it remains a true reflection of daily life, offering an authentic experience of the city’s culinary culture.
