Athens is the capital of Greece and one of the oldest cities in the World. It is steeped in history and strewn with historic buildings and monuments dating back to the Ancient greek period. Its most famous building, the Parthenon, was built between 447-432 BC.
The city's air quality, which was a problem in the 70s-80s, has been greatly improved. This, combined with the refurbishment of the city that occurred in preparation for the 2004 Olympics, has turned Athens into a modern exciting city. Athens is a pleasure to explore either on foot or by using its new Metro which, with its displays of artefacts recovered during its excavation, is the most pleasant in the world.
To get the most out of your visit it is a good idea to accustomise yourself with the location and characteristics of its different neighbourhoods.
Plaka - The oldest area of the city, Plaka lies just beneath the Acropolis. It is mainly a pedestrian area and is one of the most popular with numerous cafes and resturants interspersed amongst small tourist shops selling all sorts gifts and souvenirs especially jewelry.
Psiri - Thisseio - This is the nightlife district. By day it is a variety of small shops and workshops selling practical items but at night everything changes. The bars and restaurants open, spilling their chairs and tables into the streets. Music from the Clubs and restaurants can be heard until the early hours.
Syntagma - Leading from Syntagma, the largest square in Athens and home to the Greek parliament, you will find Ermou Street with its expensive boutiques and shopping centres.
Kolonaki- A Prestigious area of upmarket boutiques and classy restaurants and also home to a number of art galeries and museums.
Monastiraki An area of small inexpensive shops and known for its flea market.
Omonoia - Commercial district Omonoia square is surounded by hotels and chain restuarants. Should be avoided at night.

It's likely, if you are looking for a place to stay in Athens, that a city centre apartment may well be ideal, but it is worth remembering that the coast and its resorts are not very far from Athens. Hiring a villa or vacation house with a pool here may well provide a peaceful and cooler getaway from the bustle of the city, especially if you are planning a family holiday.
