Athens

Athens

For many, Athens is a city lived two thousand five hundred years ago. Symbol is the mighty Acropolis which dominates almost every view and itinerary of every visitor, crowned by the iconic Parthenon, stands above the city, watching the sprawling modern metropolis in evolution.

Athens, the capital of Greece, is a city where antiquity and modernity, history and contemporary culture blend in a unique way. Everyone knows that the name of the city derives from the ancient Greek goddess of wisdom and justice. However, few people actually know the legend behind this event. According to myth, Athena and Poseidon, the God of the seas, vied for the right to name the city. Poseidon, to impress the inhabitants, gave them water, while Athena gave them an olive branch.

At first the choice fell on Poseidon, since the citizens considered water the most precious gift. When, once they tasted the water, they discovered that it was salty and not drinkable, they changed their minds and recognized Athena as their patron. One of the most famous historical sites in the city is the Acropolis, a majestic hill topped by ancient Doric temples, including the Parthenon, built in 477 BC. and the Erechtheion, built between 421 and 406 BC. Climbing the Acropolis, tourists can enjoy a breathtaking view of the city and the Aegean Sea. However, Athens is not only history, but also a lively cultural capital. In the Plaka district, located at the foot of the Acropolis, it is possible to stroll through the welcoming streets, visit the traditional Greek taverns and enjoy the authentic atmosphere.

Then there are the numerous cultural activities offered by the numerous museums, galleries and theaters present in the city. Athens is an important port for cruise ships that offer trips to the Mediterranean and beyond. Cruises from Athens allow guests to explore the rich cultural heritage of Greece, including the islands of Crete, Santorini and Mykonos, where you can admire the crystal clear waters of the Aegean Sea and a coast of white houses.

In addition to the Greek islands, cruises from Athens also offer the opportunity to visit other exciting Mediterranean destinations, including historic cities in Italy, Croatia and Turkey. Athens is therefore not only the historical and cultural center of Greece, but also an important starting point for cruises in the Mediterranean, which offers guests the opportunity to immerse themselves in the great history and splendid landscapes of this unique region.

Many still think of Athens as an ancient city that thrived two and a half thousand years ago. Its symbol is the mighty Acropolis, which dominates almost every view and the itinerary of every visitor, and it is crowned by the iconic Parthenon, which rises above the city, overlooking the sprawling and evolving modern metropolis.

Perhaps the most significant change is in the historical centre, which is almost unrecognisable since cars have been banned. This has liberated the area with the most significant archaeological sites, creating the longest, and undoubtedly one of the most splendid, pedestrianised zones in Europe. This huge archaeological park has brought past and present together, returning the cultural and social life of the city to the area around the ancient monuments and surrounding neighbourhoods.

Athens remains a city of contradictions; it is both frustrating and seductive. It is the oldest city in Europe, yet still in a state of transition. It is one of the safest and most vibrant European cities - an intoxicating mix of grunge and grace with an undeniably urban soul.

Located south of the Peloponnese, the city of Gytheio (or Gythion) is located north of the Gulf of Lakonia. The cosmopolitan atmosphere, the landscape of a unique island, and the variety of choices are the first impressions of visitors arriving in this paradise, formerly known as the land of the Gods. Gytheio was the port of the ancient city of Sparta and soon developed as the main export center of Laconia. On the hill, north of the village, the ruins of the citadel reside. At the foot of the hill is the ancient theater which still hosts numerous cultural events. Ornamented by various Roman constructions, associated with the mountains and the sea, it gives a prestigious natural landscape. All this wonder is combined with neoclassical buildings, with the addition of the small and charming fishing port. The beaches here are fantastic (many awarded with blue flags), especially those of Mavrovouni and Selinitsa, where you can swim and try different water sports such as windsurfing. Many cultural events take place during the summer, with music festivals, theatrical performances, and attractions for young people. The summer ends with the start of the traditional fair on September 14th which lasts for a week and, subsequently, on September 30th near the port. 10 km from Gytheio, on the road to Areopolis, there are the ruins of Passava castle, built in the early years of the conquest of the Peloponnese by the Franks, constituting the base of their barony. Don't forget to visit Trinissa, a wonderful complex of islands that provide a secluded, relaxing, and natural place.
