Acropolis

ACROPOLIS, Ancient acropolis, ATHENS Presentation What to See and Do Climbing to the top of the Acropolis rock has been the first and main concern of the visitor of Athens for 2,500 years, a ritual pilgrimage. And it could not be different for this set of monuments that is the ecumenical and timeless symbol of the classical spirit and culture that Greek antiquity bequeathed to the world.The story of the Sacred Rock, however, does not begin or end here. Ten centuries before the Parthenon, the Acropolis was the seat of the Mycenaean ruler of Athens, enclosed within strong Cyclopean walls, parts of which survive to this day.The top and the edges of the rock hosted the sanctuaries of ancient cults, intertwined with the founding myths of the city and its primitive heroes-kings. The historic sanctuary of Athena retained its radiance, even when the power of the city had set.

Plaka

In the shadow of the Acropolis and its ancient temples, the one built on a hill Plaka gives the feeling of a village. Small shops selling jewelry, clothes and local ceramics line the narrow cobbled streets. Outdoor cafes and family taverns stay open until late and the Cine Paris summer cinema screens classic movies. Nearby, the whitewashed houses in the Anafiotika district give an atmosphere of a Greek island.
