Athens, the capital of Greece, is a jewel on the Balkan peninsula. It is called the cradle of culture and the city of gods. On one side of the city you will see apartment blocks and industrial centres, but on the other side, on the hill of Acropolis you will find the historic centre of Athens with its ancient Parthenon Acropolis.
Athens is situated on the peninsula of Attica near the Saronic Gulf. In the north and east it is surrounded by the Ymmytos, Pendeli and Parnitha Mountains and in the north and south it borders the Saronic Gulf. The climate in Athens is one of the best in Europe; the summers are hot and the winters are mild, which makes it ideal for hiking.
There are many more cultural sites in Athens, such as the Dionysus Theater, the Olympion Temple, the largest preserved statue in the Theseion-Hefaisteion Temple, one of the most preserved ancient monuments, to name but a few.
There are many ways to travel around the city, but it can be a good idea to explore the city on foot. The public transportation network and the stations are very dense, but unfortunately it is rather unclear and confusing.
When visiting Athens the Acropolis and the National Archaeological Museum are a must.
