Some info of Athens in Greece, located in Southern Europe :

Athens -- The city is named after Athena, the goddess of wisdom, who won the city after defeating Poseidon in a duel (legend). It's a city with old roots and many monuments dating back to the dawn of civilization. The Acropolis (upper city) dominates both the city's skyline and any tourist's itinerary. The Acropolis site includes the Acropolis Museum and four sacred buildings, all from the fifth century BC.

The city centre of Athens Greece is the famous Syntagma Square. Where you can find the Parliament and Ministries. Monastiraki, Kolonaki and Lycabettus Hill are very popular and attract thousands of visitors all year round. Not far from the historic center in Faliro, Glyfada, Voula and Vouliagmeni, you can enjoy the sea breeze or you can go up north and enjoy the fresh air at the more classy neighborhoods of Marousi, Melissia, Vrilissia and Kifisia. The Plaka is one of the nicest areas of town, an ideal place for shopping and walking through cobblestone streets or sitting down in one of the many tavernes.

Athens is a city for tourism all year around with excellent hotels, resorts, hostels, shopping and sports facilities available. Because it has one of the best climate in Europe, with soft winters and very hot summers it's an ideal destination for a vacation.
