Short break to Athens

Athens such a fascinating city. It gives the city its character and the country its identity. For a glimpse into Classical Greek history a visit to the Athens Archaeological Museum and the Parthenon are warranted. But modern day Athens is almost as invigorating; the city’s lively neighbourhoods, its cultural venues, its love for dining out, art and history can be found in the pulse of the modern day city that Athenians have come to know and cherish. Easily the most crucial ancient site in the Western world.

Greece is ancient sun-bleached ruins with an endless coastline and a culture alive with passionate music, wonderful cuisine and thrill-seeking activities. Greece has a thriving culinary culture typically cooked with the core ingredients. Greece has everything a traveller seeks, serious beach fun and some thrill-seeking activities. The gigantic blue sky shading an equally blue sea sprinkled with islands hemmed by white sands and dotted with pine trees is stuff dreams are made of. Watch sea turtles and dolphins, hike up a volcano, cycle through dense forests, weave your way through olive groves, stop at scenic village, gaze at ancient forests, for Greece is green, wild and pretty-as-a-picture. The adrenaline-junkie can take up a bunch of activities such as kitesurfing, rock climbing, wreck diving, and if none of these interest you, simply hop on to a boat and sail on the glimmering blue waters of the sea and take in a breathtaking sunset.
