Whilst in Athens, visiting the Parthenon is an experience not to be missed. Built as a temple
to honour the Greek goddess Athena you will find archaeology at its best here along with the
ancient acropolis site; an ideal beginning to over 3000 years worth of history. Take
a wander around Kolonaki Square, Athens upmarket shopping district. A wide selection
of shops selling all kinds of goods, interesting markets, food stalls and street
entertainers vying for your attention make this lively district a pleasure to explore.

a backdrop of glistening sea is an ideal way to discover all of Athens. Greece is known
for fantastic markets and authentic traditional goods can be found as mementoes of your
time here. Top this with a meal in one of the local tavernas where a wide selection of
excellent cuisine is yours to enjoy.
