In Athens, the capital of Greece, antiquity and modernity combine to form an exciting melting pot on volcanic bedrock. Already in ancient times, Athens was the center of political and cultural activity of the Greek Empire. Even today, several well-preserved monuments tell of this era and attract tourists in droves to Athens. Particularly impressive witnesses of the past are the Parthenon Columned Temple along with surrounding buildings on Athens' Temple Hill, which offers an unforgettable view of the bustling metropolis and at the same time evokes a feeling of reverent inner silence. Numerous ancient sculptures and vases, as well as jewelry, can be admired in the associated Acropolis Museum.
