Travel Guide of Athens Greece |
||||
| Athens is neither the beginning, nor the end. Athens is everywhere.
In every point on the map. And every point on the map is in Athens. Because
Athens is the centre of all the centres in the world.Everything is concentrated
within her. She is the city of the Olympic Idea, the city of artists, cultural
channel, scientific centre, East and West for each voyager, the crossroads of every major event for the active, the fashion that is in for avid sophisticates, the Parthenon of all and for all.Artistic happenings, festivals, conventions, athletic competitions, celebrations, entertainment events choose Athens, prefer Athens as their venue When you climb up to the Acropolis, keep looking at the view as you
stroll about. Every time you'll see another city.A city filled with contrasts
and surprises. Beautiful and varied. Every second Athens becomes a different
city.Ancient. And Byzantine. And Neoclassical. And modern. Crowed. And
solitary.And always smiling.You can find Athen's smile everywhere: in
an ancient theatre, in a modern exhibition hall, at a sports event, down
by the sea, high on a mountain top during a guided tour, at a concert,
around the table in a tavernaki, in a garden during a posh reception,
in a little alleyway, in a spacious square, behind the mast of a sailboat
or next to the column of an old temple. |
