Even though you've probably come here to see the "glory that was Greece," perhaps best symbolized by the Parthenon and the superb statues and vases in the National Archaeological Museum, allow some time to make haste slowly in Athens. Your best moments may come sitting at a small cafe, sipping a tiny cup of the sweet sludge that the Greeks call coffee, or getting hopelessly lost in the Plaka -- only to find yourself in the shady courtyard of an old church, or suddenly face to face with an ancient monument you never knew existed. With only a little advance planning, you can find a good hotel here, eat well in convivial restaurants, enjoy local customs such as the refreshing afternoon siesta and the leisurely evening volta (promenade or stroll) -- and leave Athens planning to return, as the Greeks say, tou chronou (next year).

Athens (Piraeus)

|
Piraeus is the seaport for Athens, the capital of western civilization, which boasts a fantastic mix of classical ruins and vivacious modern life. Climb the hill of Acropolis to wonder at the Parthenon, join the lively Athenians in Constitution Square, and find a welcoming taverna for spirited bizouki music, plenty of ouzo to drink, and energetic Greek dancing. Piraeus is the largest harbor in the country. The white chapel of St. George at its summit has a theater bearing the same name. The hill of Nymphs is the site of a planetarium, which is located above magnificent Thesseio temple. Among all of these hills, Acropolis is the one that glorified Athens and the whole Greek world and became the symbol of the western civilization. Bays and small rocky or sandy coves dot the area and during the summer are filled with Athenians and foreigners enjoying their beauty.

Tinos

9/9/2024 |
|
Located in the southern Aegean Sea, this small Greek island has an uncharacteristically varied landscape that includes warm sandy beaches, fruitful plains and looming mountain ridges. Tinos islanders have added to the natural beauty of the island by utilizing its natural marble resources to create stone walkways between villages and terraces on the hillsides. However, Tinos is probably most famous for the Church of Panagia Evangelistria, the destination of a yearly pilgrimage and home to an icon of the Virgin Mary. Other points of interest include Tinos’ quaint villages, an abundance of windmills and artistic dovecotes as well as the Venetian fortifications atop Exobourgo Mountain.

Amorgos has two beautiful and safe ports, Aegiali and Katapola. Aegiali has heavy tourist action, showing at the same time all the characteristics of a traditional Greek fishing harbor. Aegiali is famous for the unique landscapes of rare beauty and the golden beaches its visitors are offered, as well as the several ancient monuments and the wonderful little churches.
