Athens The city of the Olympic Idea and the majestic Acropolis is the crossroads where east meets west and home to many cultural and fashion events. From her proud temples to the music players in the streets, this city displays her extensive history at every turn. Weave your way from Constitution Square to the beautiful national monuments through lush parks surrounded by preserved Corinthian columns. The new transportation system and pedestrian promenades efficiently interlace the antiquities, parks and many areas rich in nightlife like Plaka, Psirri and Thissio. Tradition, history, and modernity fuse harmoniously. Athens has become a modern city model that other European cities wish to emulate, especially after the 2004 Olympics. The streets have become public art museums where one can find a sculpture exhibition along side the ancient outdoor theater of Herodion, where festivals take place every summer, or a contemporary photo exhibit in the metro station. The beauty, music, art and culture and lively nightlife of Athens make Athenians proud and delighted visitors wish they could stay longer to experience more. While the visitor is sure to visit Plaka, there are many other charming areas of Athens. For example: Psirri, with its boutiques, enchanting tavernas, cafes and bars; where tiny alleys hold centuries of stories like the rembetika-filled nights where the women who inspired the likes of Lord Byron were coaxed from their balconies. Visit Kolonaki to shop the designer boutiques at the Acropolis foothills or have a coffee on the square. Places like the pine clad Lycabettus hill with its chapel of St. George offer a panoramic view of the city, are a visitor's must. The nearby Athens suburbs by the waterfront are also easy to get to and a delight to visit. Athens is filled with wondrous sights and surprises.
