So just why do tens of thousands of visitors book up a cheap flight to Athens every year? The city is certainly not for the faint hearted or those of a nervous disposition. The traffic can reach horrendous proportions and the hustle and bustle and the heat can be pretty intense. However, where else can you find the very beginnings of western civilisation?

The main attractions of Athens are centred conveniently around the Acropolis and so are all easily walkable for most people.
