    The Acropolis, perched atop a hill about 150 meters high in the heart of Athens, is visible from many parts of the city. Originally built for defense and refuge, the Acropolis was also a place where the ancient Athenians worshipped the goddess Athena. When discussing Athenian culture, the Parthenon, the Erechtheion, the Temple of Athena Nike, and the Propylaea are essential components of the Acropolis, highlighting its importance. These sites are crucial for understanding Athenian culture and are must-sees. I visited in December, during the off-season, and both the Parthenon and the Erechtheion were under renovation and inaccessible; however, even from a distance, one could sense their former glory. Climbing to the top offers panoramic views of Athens, a dense expanse of white houses stretching as far as the eye can see. Both theaters are breathtaking. Only the buildings themselves remain on the Acropolis; a visit to the Acropolis Museum to carefully examine the preserved artifacts is highly recommended. Otherwise, you'll only be able to gaze at the columns and imagine its past glory. Perhaps due to the off-season, there was no queue for tickets; they cost 30 euros per person. The mountain isn't high, but the wind is strong and the sun is shining brightly, so be sure to protect yourself from the sun and wind; wearing sneakers is a must. Guides need to be booked in advance; there aren't many people before 10 am, so you can read the written description carefully.

    We experienced a comfortable tour for 3 days on the beautiful island. We drove to a lot of scenery. It was very easy to rent a car or scooter. Then you can go anywhere more convenient. Finally It was very unforgettable journey ☺️

    This is a must-see event of the change of guards every morning at 8 am. This is really a spectacular galore of the past & that is most exciting to foreign visitors. It's normally packed with bus loads of tourists and foreigners alike, so be ready for crowds, all trying to capture the best photo and video angle of the 'guards' change. The guards in full ancient military costumes are really mesmerising!

    I didn't expect there is such a place in the city center. The transportation here is also very easy. It is really beautiful here, completely different from the hustle and bustle downstairs. I really like the scenery here, which is very Greek in style.

    Mount Lycabettus is also a very beautiful place. The structure of the entire mountain top is quite unique. You can also see a lot of facilities here. The fun content on the top of the mountain is also diverse and uniquely structured.

    These windmills where used to grind grains in olden days before electricity. Probably 17th or 18th century. However not these 7 windmills are been preserved and serve as the icon of Mykonos.Spectacular view of the old port and little Venice... Lots of parking space though very crowded.. Amazing hotel south of the windmills.You can see the windmills from practically every hill in Mykonos.
