Where to find the best croissants in Athens?
I was super happy when I discovered 'Portatif', a little charming Parisian style coffee shop in Kolonaki area, at the heart of Athens.
Have you tasted its Devine croissants?
Odeon of Herodes Atticus
One of the legendary sites that sits beneath the slopes of the Acropolis on the southwest side, is the stunning open-air theatre, Odeon of Herodes Atticus.
In ancient times, Odeons were built for musical contests and this ancient stone theatre has gone on to host some of the world’s best musical performances during the last 60 years since its modern day re-opening, including Nana Mouskouri, Luciano Pavarotti and Frank Sinatra to name a few.
Be sure to check out their events page for information of performances that are scheduled at the Odeon of Herodes Atticus between May and October

The National Art Gallery of Athens is the most important museum for the history of art in Greece. It is located in a walking distance from Syntagma Square, just opposite Athens Hilton Hotel.This gallery was established in 1900 and the first curator was the important Greek painter, George Iakovides. The initiative for the opening of the gallery was the donation of the lawyer and art-lover, Alexandros Soutsos. This is why the gallery is also called Museum of Alexandros Soutsos. After his death in 1986, Soutsos left his large collection of art (107 pieces) to the Greek State, so that a gallery was founded.Opening hours: MONDAY09:00 - 15:00TUESDAYWEDNESDAY15:00 - 21:00THURSDAY09:00 - 15:00FRIDAY09:00 - 15:00SATURDAY09:00 - 15:00SUNDAY10:00 - 14:00
