Beyond the breathtaking beauty of the Parthenon, Athens is still one of Europe's lesser-known destinations. In a series of walks, this guide fully explores all the treasures of this ancient city: the bazaars and food markets; tucked-away Byzantine churches and rare gems of antiquity; and perhaps the most beautiful metro station in the world. From its amber shops and patisseries, to one of the most outstanding museums in Europe, Athens is a true source of riches. Written for both the first-time visitor as well as the seasoned Hellenophile, this guide also includes a fine selection of cafes, restaurants, and hotels.
