What’s On In

Athens has a long history, dating from the first settlement in the Neolithic age. In the 5th Century BC (the “Golden Age of Pericles”) – the culmination of Athens’ long, fascinating history – the city’s values and civilization acquired a universal significance. In 1834, it became the capital of the modern Greek state and in two centuries since it has become an attractive modern metropolis with unrivalled charm. Part of the town’s historic centre has been converted into a 3-kilometre pedestrian zone, leading to the major archaeological sites, reconstructing – to a large degree – the ancient landscape.
