Ever thought taking a holiday in the Gods? I was lucky to have flown to Athens - a city with the most celebrated history in the world. Or, shall I call it a city that’s been worshiped by gods and people. Interested in discovering a city that inhabited for more than 3,000 years? A city where the democracy came to its life? Book a flight to Athens and you will be delivered to such an amazing European capital in a few hours.

I had been waiting for flying to Athens, the capital city of Greece, for long but could not as I was deeply engaged with something crucial back at work. But I desperately wanted to escape the boring city life for a quick city break in Athens - one of the most important pieces of history in the world.

So it does not come as a surprise why this mind-blowing Greek capital has been becoming more and more popular to visit with compareandfly.com. Athens has so much to do and see that you would be entertained right through your tour.

Here are three top tourist attractions in Athens:

雅典卫城

当然，世界上没有多少景点可以与雅典的雅典卫城进行比较，当然，它的帕台农神庙坐在一座岩石山上，一直在城市中监视了几个世纪。当时，当这个城市像金色的宝座一样，雅典是古希腊小镇的中心，被认为是雅典的荣耀。

The most symbolical building is the Parthenon, which is the largest temple of the classical ancient period dating back from 447 BC to 338 BC. This temple is truly a breathtaking sight. No trip to Athens would be complete without a visit to The Acropolis.

National Archaeology Museum

Next in your ‘to-do’ list should be the National Archaeology Museum, the largest archaeological museum in Greece and not to mention, it’s one of the world’s best antiquities museums. Housed in a stunning Neoclassical building with 8,000 square metres of exhibition space, five permanent collections with more than 11,000 exhibits offer every history lover an overview of Greek civilisation.

Byzantine Museum

Visit the Byzantine Museum, an interesting museum offering mind-blowing insights into the Byzantine period. This museum is housed in a 19th century palace which was originally built for the Duchess de Plaisance, the consort of the Charles-François Lebrun of France. Here in this museum you will find an amazing collection of Byzantine art.

家to more than 25,000 artefacts on display, the Byzantine Museum is a repository of sacred artefacts from the Byzantine era.
