We are so glad to publish this annual summer issue not only because we are so proud of the beauty of our capital city, but also because we are able to share our city experiences and suggestions with you.
In the following pages you can have a taste of what life in Athens means. A vivid amalgam of culture and history, activities and interesting sights. We encourage you to live in Athens like a local. In fact, visiting Athens is like you enter a vast museum; full of historic traces in every corner, full of exhibitions, and full of fun activities to do. Don’t hesitate to stand at every spot that catches your interest, look around you and discover the real centre of Athens.
Athens is the place where real life meets history. A place that jumbles some statues, easily found in the city, with some Athenian people, who share their experience in their beloved capital city. Also, we don’t miss to introduce you to the traditional Greek music, so that you get in touch with some ordinary music instruments.
Watch out! We present to you two types of tourists and two types of local people you have to avoid, so that you don’t get on your nerves! Visit the athenian markets, mix with the locals and live your dream holidays in Greece! Summer in Athens means strong sun -even heatwaves!- long nights that keep you awake till the first morning hours, with the taste of the alcohol -probably because of the wine- on your lips.
