Stop At: Acropolis, via Dionysiou Areopagitou str., Athens 105 58 Greece
The Acropolis is home to an exceptional array
of incredible classical masterpieces and thousands of
years’ worth of history. The word 'Acropolis' actually translates as 'high city' due to its elevated
position above the rest of Athens.
Duration: 15 minutes
Stop At: Parthenon, Acropolis Top of Dionyssiou Areopagitou, Athens 105 58 Greece
The Parthenon was originally built in the 5
th Century BCE. This incomparable temple was built to
honor the Greek Goddess of Wisdom, Athena, whom the city is named after
Duration: 15 minutes
Stop At: Acropolis Museum, Dionysiou Areopagitou 15, Athens 117 42 Greece
Attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors every year, the museum is rapidly becoming as famous
as
the architectural wonders that surround it. Opened to the public in 2009, the museum is home to
an incredible collection of Ancient and Classical Greek artefacts all housed in a state of the art
setting.
Duration: 15 minutes
Stop At: Temple of Olympian Zeus, Leoforos Vasilissis Olgas Leoforos Amalias, Athens 105 57 Greece
The temple took well over 600 years to complete and it stood proudly for approximately 200 years
before time and neglect began to dilapidate the building until it reached its present condition which
nonetheless evokes the temple's former grandeur.
Duration: 15 minutes
Stop At: Panathenaic Stadium, Vassileos Konstantinou Avenue opposite the statue of Myron Discobolus, Athens 116 35 Greece
Greece and the Olympic Game
s have a dramatically intertwined history with the fortunes of one
often affecting the fortunes of the other. This relationship can be traced back literally thousands of
years with the ancient Olympic Games dating back as far as the 7th Century BCE
Duration: 15 minutes
Stop At: Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, Leoforos Vasilissis Amalias Syntagma Square, Athens 100 28 Greece
It is uncertain whether there any actual remains at the site but the tribute commemorates those
who have made the ultimate sacrifice defending their nation and its principals, throughout history.
Duration: 15 minutes
Stop At: Syntagma Station, Leoforos Vassilissis Amalias Syntagma Square, Athens 105 63 Greece
Although its history is relatively recent compared with the rest of this ancient city, Syntagma Square
has been the central point for all of the major political movements in Athens over the last 200 years
Duration: 15 minutes
Stop At: Plaka, Athens 10556 Greece
Interestingly, considering Plaka is
of central importance to Athens, the origins of its name have been
lost to the ages. In fact, the area was not even known as Plaka until the Greek War of Independence
came to a close in the early stages of the 1800's.
