Product Description

"CitySpots Athens" guides you straight to the heart of the Greek capital. Revitalised by the 2004 Olympic Games, the city's new and improved public transport, spruced-up shopping quarters and brand new hotels make a great city break choice. "Athens" highlights include: innumerable ancient treasures including the Theatre of Dionysus, Hadrian's Arch, and most famously, the Parthenon set atop The Acropolis; home of the National Archaeological Museum, National Theatre and the Greek Theatre Museum; Syndagma Square with the changing of the Erzones guard; old city streets of Plaka and Monastiraki, lined with shops; and vibrant nightlife ranging from tavernas to Michelin-starred restaurants, relaxed cocktail bars to all-night clubs. There are direct flights from Birmingham, Gatwick, Glasgow, Heathrow, Luton, Manchester, and Stansted. Beaches are just 10 miles south of Athens. It is a gateway to the Greek Islands.
