The Acropolis, Athens

The Acropolis of Athens is an ancient citadel located on a rocky outcrop above the city of Athens and contains the remains of several ancient buildings of great architecture and history. The Acropolis, perched above modern-day Athens, beckons you up and in. Follow in the footsteps of the ancients as you go up the same steps that have been used for 2,500 years, since 438 BC.

Walking amid the perfectly renovated ancient structures provides amazing views of the city. You'll want to linger at the end of the day to view the sunset from the stairs near the entryway. In Athens, this is a nightly routine. Looking up from the city below, the site is also breathtaking. Spend an evening dining on a rooftop patio while seeing the lit-up hilltop ruins.
