Visiting Lycabettus Hill in the heart of Athens was an absolutely incredible experience. From the moment I started my hike up this picturesque hill, I was captivated by the lush greenery and the serenity of nature. The well-maintained paths made the journey enjoyable, and as I ascended, my excitement grew.
Reaching the summit was like stepping into a postcard. The panoramic view of Athens sprawled out beneath me was awe-inspiring. It felt as if I could see the entire city from this vantage point. The historic landmarks, the charming neighborhoods, and the city's unique blend of ancient and modern architecture all came into focus. It was a visual treat that I'll cherish forever.
I had the pleasure of being there in the evening, and the sight of the sun setting over Athens was nothing short of magical. The sky transformed into a mesmerizing canvas of warm hues, and the city lights began to twinkle, creating a captivating atmosphere. It's a fantastic spot for a romantic moment or just to take in the beauty of Athens.
Lycabettus Hill is a must-visit destination in Athens. The combination of natural beauty and the splendid view it offers of the city is truly unforgettable. Whether you're a nature lover, a history enthusiast, or simply seeking a stunning view, this place has it all. I can't...
Read moreBe careful...It seems to be there are thieves on the observation deck. 2 guys and 1 girl working together. I was taking a photo of Athens and my gf saw standing somebody behind me (I didnt see him). After that we decided to move something like 15m away and take pictures of a different part of the city. After couple of shots i turned around and saw a guy standing behind me something like 1m pretending taking photos etc..but at this place there wasnt any need to be standing behind me. I told my gf that he is suspicious to me and she said its the same guy who was standing behind me the previous time. I was watching him after that he left. Maybe 10mins later he was doing the same thing to another guy and couple of minutes later again to another guy. He was standing close behind them pretending looking around. (They didnt notice). Later on a girl and the guy came to him talked to each other and then separated again. It was very suspicious i would say 99% plus they were thieves. Be careful of your sorroundings. Other than that the views were great a lot of people in a peak time. After sunset the amount of people...
Read moreThe craziest view you can see in Athens is simply amazing and in general get there before sunset, then you can take pictures both before and after sunset, really recommended There is no public transportation to the place, so the options are to walk (about 15-20 minutes walking uphill) or with the help of a taxi or a private car to a certain point and from there, a 5-minute walk. At the top of the hill there is a spectacular 360 view of the entire metropolis of Athens that no picture can describe. There are restaurants and cafes in the place - in the big restaurant the service is really bad and they don't come and they just dry you to death, in the bar the service is really excellent and fast and the view is also really beautiful from there You can go up to the mountain by electric trolley at an additional cost and from there on foot to...
