[2024 Athens Attraction] Travel Guide for Athens National Garden (Updated Dec)

Travel to Athens, it is a must 🏛️

#travelgram Visiting Athens was an incredible experience! Walking through the ancient city felt like stepping into history. The highlight was, of course, the Acropolis. The entrance fee was €20, but it’s totally worth it for the views of the Parthenon and the whole city from the top! The climb is a bit steep, but the panoramic view of Athens is breathtaking. You can also visit the Acropolis Museum, which costs €10, and it’s full of fascinating artifacts from ancient Greece. Plaka, the old neighborhood just below the Acropolis, was another favorite spot. The narrow streets, charming tavernas, and lively vibe made it the perfect place for lunch. I had the best souvlaki there and loved wandering through the small shops. If you’re into history, don’t miss the Temple of Olympian Zeus, and for a bit of relaxation, head over to the National Gardens, right in the heart of the city. Athens is a perfect blend of ancient wonders and modern life. 🇬🇷 #AthensAdventure #AncientGreece #AcropolisViews #GreekHistory #PlakaWanderings #SouvlakiHeaven

Home of green parrots and turtles in Athens

The best place in Athens to hide from daytime heat with pleasure! The National Garden is in 10 minutes by foot from Omonia square. It is big green park, be sure you will not miss it) There are a lot of different trees, plants and flowers as well as lawn where you can rest in shades. Or you can visit a lake inside a park to feed ducks, but unfortunately lake area is closed for reconstruction now. Hope they will done it soon. For my surprise the park is populated with green parrots, they are literally everywhere! but it is difficult to catch them with camera, they are mor timorous than pigeons. And if you are lucky, there is a chance to find a turtles in the wild there, they are kind and social, keep some food with you to feed them:) Have a nice stay in Athens! #athens #turtle #nationalgarden
