3 days in Athens Itinerary

One of the world's most ancient cities, Athens remains Europe's undisputed historical and cultural capital.

Eschew the tourist crowds and head to Temple of Hephaestus and Panathenaic Stadium. Change things up with a short trip to Temple of Poseidon in Sounio (about 1h 15 min away). Next up on the itinerary: appreciate the history behind Erechtheion, look for gifts at Kerannymi, stop by Plaka, and get engrossed in the history at Acropolis Museum.
