Car Rental in Athens
General Information about Athens
Athens is the capital of Greece, as well as the country’s largest city (more than 4 million inhabitants in the entire agglomeration). It is a city which is difficult to say anything about and avoid falling into cliché and stereotypes. The capital of Greece
attracts crowds of tourists all year round, which can be cumbersome, especially in the summer, also because of the noise and smog. However, the unique sights never fail to amaze. The best way to get around Athens and visit all the beautiful sights is with a rental car. The atmosphere of thousands of years of history is something every visitor to Athens is likely feel. Apart from the mandatory sites such as the Acropolis, Parthenon, and numerous museums, it is a good idea to simply walk along the labyrinth of narrow streets and admire the combination of modernity and distant history.
Athens is the largest city of Greece, which when viewed from the Acropolis seems to stretch to the horizon. Everyone can find something for themselves: in small cafes in small squares, or popular discos and clubs, small restaurants serving delicious takeaway Souvlaki and exclusive restaurants, bustling, crowded streets with a multitude of shops and a lovely, quiet park in the city center. The most scenic route to the Acropolis passes through the district of Plaka. It is worth a while to stroll along narrow streets, among the white houses built by the inhabitants of the Greek islands and feel like you are on the Cyclade Islands or Santorini.

The city, whose origins are lost in the darkness of the Neolithic period, experienced dramatic changes in history, with moments of power intertwined with those of a complete collapse. The majestic ruins of Athens contrast with the clamor of its oriental markets. Quiet hills emerge from the hustle of crowded street. Beautiful historical monuments are hidden among the uniform, modern buildings.
That is Athens.
