About Athens, Greece

Athens is the capital and largest city of Greece. It is one of the world's oldest cities, with its recorded history spanning over 3,400 years. It is widely referred to as the cradle of Western civilization and the birthplace of democracy, largely due to the impact of its cultural and political achievements during the 5th and 4th centuries BC on the rest of the then known European continent. Today, Athens is a modern metropolis with a population of over 3 million people. It is a major economic, financial, and cultural center in southeastern Europe. It is home to numerous historical sites, including the Acropolis, the Parthenon, the Ancient Agora, and the Temple of Olympian Zeus. Athens is also home to two UNESCO World Heritage Sites, the Daphni Monastery and the medieval city of Rhodes.
