Groupon’s Guide To Athens

Rich with history yet beating to a modern European tune, Athens, the capital city of Greece, balances a maze of busy tavernas, restored historical sites, and tree-lined promenades linking marble temples to neoclassical museums.

Athens is home to The Acropolis, a famous citadel boasting ancient architectural wonders, with the sacred structure of the Parthenon foremost among them. For a little more background knowledge, the Kanellopoulous Museum hides a collection of jewellery, pottery, and Byzantine icons. Honouring the Olympian Gods, the Statue of Athena Promachos and the Temple of Zeus offer travellers a peek into the ancient and mythical world of Hellenic art and culture, while visitors who want to catch a glimpse of the golden age of Athens may head to the 6th-century Theatre of Dionysus.

The climate in the capital city of Greece is Mediterranean, with hot wet summers and rainy winters. Between July and September, Athens receives a great level of sunshine. During daytime the average temperatures stand at 33°C, with little chance of rainfall. Autumn may be the best time to visit the city. Night times are pleasantly cool in October, but in November the temperature can drop down close to 10°C, and rainfall is seen more often in this period. Winter is mild, but colder temperatures are possible and the city can receive snowfall on occasions. Like autumn, spring is a great time to visit Athens, with pleasant temperatures and low rainfall.
