Tasty, fresh, fish dishes and salads. Also, next door is our favourite traditional souvlaki shop in Athens - the 'pita gyro ap ola' (doner kebab wrapped in pita bread with sauce and a little salad) is wonderful.

Arts & Culture

You know about the Acropolis of course - but if you have a bit more time and want to dig deeper into antiquity, then this is the place to go - for an hour or a month.

Walk in the ancient market of Athens, where Socrates and Plato built the foundations of western philosophy, and modern democracy was invented. Great views of the Acropolis, wild flowers in spring and autumn, plenty of cafes and restaurants nearby when you need refreshment.

As well as boasting the National Opera and the National Library, there is a wonderful new park with large lawn for running around and great kids play equipment, shady walks under olives, and some good views to the sea and the city. Also a reflecting lake over 100 m long and Athens' newest iconic building. Oh and of course cafes to buy your coffees and snacks.

Parks & Nature

Get away from the crowds, and walk in the shade of the pine trees on Filpappou Hill - which also has the best views of the Parthenon from the top. Home to wild tortoises, terrapins, hoopoes, and great for wildflowers in spring and autumn.

Shopping

More kind of fish and more animals (and body parts) than you probably ever imagined. Around the market itself are stalls for fruit and veg and shops for local cheeses, nuts, dried fruit, spices, preserved meats and all kinds of other delicacies.
