Athens
Athens is one of the great cities of
the world and one of the few places that can look back to a
history of thousands of years. No other place contributed so
much to the Western civilization than did Athens during its
peak time 2,500 years ago, when it was the spiritual center
of the then known world. It was here that such universal
values as democracy were born and flourished. It was here
that philosophical and political meditation were developed
and later affected the course of the Western civilization.
It was here that literature, fine arts and sciences reached
an unparalleled acme. History, however, is not the only
reason why the Greek capital has become a popular tourist
destination. This vibrant metropolis of 4 million
inhabitants offers visitors many choices of what to do
during their stay.
