Why Athens?
The 6th oldest city in the world
Athens is steeped in history and culture, from the ancient ruins dotted around the city, to its fascinating museums. You'll never be stuck for things to see and do, whether you're exploring the winding streets of Plaka or admiring the grand Temple of Olympian Zeus.
Athens is the capital and largest city of Greece. It dominates the Attica region with its earliest human presence starting somewhere between the 11th and 7th millennium BC. This city is also an ancient home of philosophy and the birthplace of Western civilisations. In fact it boasts of habitation that goes back long before the days of Socrates, Plato and Aristotle. The city withstood the test of times and was a subject of complete destruction following the Dorian and Persian invasions. Today, Athens is a sprawling metropolis and the oldest capital city in Europe.
