Enjoy a tour of Athens, combining many of the
city's principal modern and classical sights. This
tour includes an overview of the modern city and
striking contrasts to the remains of its glorious
past. Drive by the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in
front of the Parliament House on Constitution
Square, the
Panathenian Stadium (site of the first modern
Olympic Games in 1896). See vistas of the
Presidential Palace (ex Royal Palace), government
buildings and elegant homes. Drive along
Panepistimiou Avenue and view the Catholic
Cathedral, the
Academy, University, National Library and Omonia
Square. In contrast, we visit the Roman Temple of
Olympian Zeus and the crowning beauty and glory that
was Ahens, the
Acropolis with its many monuments atop its rocky
base, including the awesome
Parthenon, the Propylaea, the Temple of Athena
Nike and the Erechtheion with its Porch of Maidens.
Continue and visit the place where at last the
statues found their home and admire the wonders of
the classical era: The new Acropolis museum. |
