Athens Gateaway (GR)

A getaway to Greece is always a good idea. Since prices are low after the crisis, then why not to visit it.

Top tourist destinations in the central of Athens are:

a) Kolonaki – you can find all sort of shops you want; where you can definitely do your shopping therapy in Ermou.

b) Sintagma square – where the Constitution of Greece is located there and is named after the first constitution adopted in the modern Greek State which is called “Sintagma”.

c) Monastiraki – lots of touristic shops and cafe restaurants; worth to visit 360 Coctailbar which is a rooftop bar and you will definitely enjoy the view of Athens in 360 degrees.

d) Thanasis and Dia Tauta restaurants – traditional kebab aka gyros and amazing sea food where you can enjoy live Greek music

e) Acropolis of Athens and the Parthenon –  Parthenon was built in respect to the goddess of wisdom Athena, hence the name comes from the ancient word parthenon – the temple of virgin. Situated in Acropolis which is a hill chosen for purposes of defence in the past.

I hope I have helped with this blog post and please do not hesitate to ask me for further information.

P.S I have to say I feel so proud to call myself Greek, particularly for the ancient Greeks who  played contributory role for the next generations and civilizations 🙂
