Athens is a big cultural capital with an
incomparable range of monuments dating from the antiquity to the Byzantine times
through to the modern day. It offers a large choice of hotels, where you will
enjoy the famous Greek hospitality and the delicious Mediterranean cuisine in
its natural context. The good weather is one of the city's allies, so you'll also
have the chance to spend sunny days on one of the wonderful beaches nearby. In
its numerous museums you'll appreciate unique collections and exhibitions.
Athens hosts various cultural events, many of which take place at its antique
theatres. There, under the moonlit Attica sky, you can watch ancient comedy or
tragedy plays, great performers and orchestras. The Athens
nightlife is simply glamorous: choose a trendy
bar, a flamboyant "bouzoukia" place, or an elegant club.
When most people think
of the natural environment of Attica, they think of sandy beaches along
the coastline. What they
do not know is that Attica is
scattered with wildlife reserves and extraordinary landscapes. Attica has an abundance of beautiful
mountains, striking caves and flowing lakes.
