Acropolis Of Athens
Explore the Acropolis at your own pace, Athens’ iconic ancient citadel that towers above the city as a symbol of classical civilization. This UNESCO World Heritage site is home to the majestic Parthenon, the elegant Erechtheion with its famous Caryatids, the Temple of Athena Nike, and the grand Propylaia entrance. Wander through the same sacred grounds where ancient Athenians worshipped, debated democracy, and shaped Western culture. Enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of Athens from the rocky hilltop while discovering architectural masterpieces and rich mythology. The Acropolis offers an unforgettable journey through history, art, and legend at the heart of Greece’s capital. The visit does not include guided tour with licensed guide or entrance fees.
Panathenaic StadiumPass-by Only
Step into history at the Panathenaic Stadium, the world’s only stadium built entirely of gleaming white marble. Originally constructed in the 4th century BC to host the ancient Panathenaic Games honoring the goddess Athena, this magnificent site was transformed by the Roman aristocrat Herodes Atticus into a grand horseshoe-shaped arena seating up to 50,000 spectators. Rediscovered and rebuilt in the 19th century, it proudly hosted the first modern Olympic Games in 1896 and remains a symbol of athletic tradition. Walk the historic track where ancient athletes competed, admire the stunning marble architecture, and feel the timeless spirit of competition in the heart of Athens.
Hellenic ParliamentPass-by Only
The Hellenic Parliament building is a striking neoclassical landmark located at the heart of Athens’ Syntagma Square. Originally built between 1836 and 1843 as the royal palace for King Otto, this elegant ochre-colored structure was transformed into Greece’s Parliament in 1935. Designed by Bavarian architect Friedrich von Gärtner, the building reflects Athens’ rich history and classical heritage. Today, it houses the Greek legislative body and overlooks the Monument to the Unknown Soldier, where the famous Evzones guard the tomb. Visiting the Parliament offers a glimpse into modern Greek democracy set within a historic and architecturally impressive setting.
