5ACROPOLIS OF ATHENS

The Acropolis of Athens is one of the most iconic ancient sites of Europe and one of the awesome things to do on mainland Greece, if not the world. It’s the birthplace of democracy, the cradle of Western Civilisation, and a top travel European bucket list item.

You can’t visit Athens and miss the Acropolis. Quite literally, in fact – it has a prominent position on top of a hill in the centre of the city. You can see it from most streets in the centre of town.
