Athens accommodations welcome you to a destination nicknamed “The City of the Violet Crown”.
Athens known for: ancient structures, temples, amphitheaters, architectural range (Greco-Roman, Neoclassical, modern), Orthodox churches, museums, performing arts theaters, plazas, nightlife, democracy
Located in southeastern Greece, Athens spreads across the Attica region’s central plain (aka Athens / Attica Basin), which is encompassed by four mountains: Aigaleo (west), Parnitha (north – tallest at 4,636 ft.), Pentelicus (northeast) and Hymettus (east). A number of hills help characterize Athens itself, with Lycabettus being one of the tallest. Found on the Aegean Sea, Athens’ 3 ports serve as a gateway to the renowned Greek Isles.

Keep in mind that certain areas are hilly in Athens so sneakers might be good to pack. Athens generally is considered safe, though an area best avoided is Omonia (north-central) due to homelessness, drug use, prostitution, sanitation concerns and petty crime. Athens accommodations are some of the Mediterranean’s best. Before we get to Athens accommodations, let’s take a look at some more background information on the area to help you along the way.
Cave of Schist archaeological evidence dates to around 11,000 BC, with humans likely thriving in the Athens area for at least 5,000 years. Early-on Athenians were embattled by Persian Empire invasions. Alongside 7,000 Greek Spartans, King Leonidas fought over 120,000 Persians at the Battle of Thermopylae (480 BC). Victorious, Persia would take control of Phocis, Boeotia and Attica. The Athens “Golden Age” (Pericles, Sophocles, Plato, Socrates, etc.) occurred from 480 to 404 BC. Convicted of “corrupting the minds of Athens’ youth” as well as asebeia (impiety), Socrates was imprisoned and made to drink hemlock poison (cause of death c. 399 BC). Plato’s works Crito and Phaedo were inspired by Socrates’ visitation by and discussion with friends on his last night in prison. From its Golden Age Athens would create a blueprint for democracy / Western civilization. A fairer fight would be the 79 BC Battle of Plataea. Greek city-states rose up to defeat the Achaemenid (Persian) Empire while reclaiming Attica and Boeotia. The 3rd century AD (Late Antiquity) brought prosperity to Athens (Crusades & trade with Italy). Byzantine art flourished in the city during the 11th and 12th centuries. Athens was ruled by the “Latins” (Frankish-Germanic) from 1204 to 1458, and the Ottoman Empire from 1458 to 1832. The Greek War of Independence (1821–1829) saw Greece at last achieve independence from the Ottoman Empire. The Kingdom of Greece would see Athens expand outward from the Acropolis. Otto of Bavaria (Greece’s first king) commissioned architects to design a modern city plan, and Neoclassical architecture sprung-up. Athens hosted the first modern Olympic Games (1896). Following World War II the city saw significant population growth, though with accompanying air pollution in the 70s / 80s. 1990s anti-pollution measures and improvements to infrastructure resulted in better air quality. Athens hosted the 2004 Summer Olympics, more than a century after hosting the first modern games.
Home to around 650,000 “Athenians”, Athens is Greece’s capital and largest city, as well as mainland Europe’s southernmost capital. An archaeological mecca, the city has as much to discover below ground as it does above, with ancient tunnels and subterranean structures dating to the Classical and Roman periods. The city’s main economic sectors are finance, maritime and tourism. Athens also is capital of the Attica region (extends southward to Greek Islands Regional Unit). One of the world’s oldest cities and a popular tourist destination since antiquity, Athens accommodates about 5 million annual visitors. Owing to building height restriction laws, the Acropolis can be seen throughout The City of the Violet Crown. Spread throughout Athens are roughly 150 theatrical stages and hundreds of statues / busts. Athens is characterized by a Mediterranean climate. Hot summers average in the low-90s °F (highs), while mild winters stay in the mid-50s.

Popular drinks: ouzo (absinthe-tasting spirit – made from grapes), metaxa (liqueur), tsipouro (strong clear spirit), mastiha (herbal pine drink, popular on beaches), souma (distilled grape spirit), debina (white sparkling wine)
