Explore the Ancient History of Athens Greece!

We've made it to Greece baby!!! Come along with me Travel Dons as I take you on a tour of Ancient Athens. We will start with some quick breakfast in the Thissio neighborhood just outside of the Pynx Hill. Afterwards we spend a few hours exploring the birthplace of Western Democracy. Places including the Pynx Hill, The Odeon of Herodus, The Theatre of Dionysus and of the Acropolis where the Parthenon reigns Supreme.

Much of Ancient Greece was built between the 6th and 4th centuries B.C. The Parthenon itself was built during the reconstruction of Athens after the sack by the Persians. Commissioned by Perikles the leader of Athens at the time, this structure was built in under 15 years.

Afterwards we head to the Makrygianni district of Athens and explore the Acropolis Museum. A veritable collection of Antiquity statues and archeological finds. We will finish off with a delicious meal and glass of wine in the Makrygianni main street.
