A day in Athens beyond the Acropolis
You can begin the morning on the Acropolis and still have a good walk ahead of you when you come down. The Athens guide connects the hilltop monuments with the lanes of Plaka and Anafiotika, Monastiraki Square and the two Agoras. Open the map to pick up the story wherever you find yourself.
If you have another afternoon, use the museum and neighborhood sections to build a different route. Listen at the Benaki Museum or the Museum of Cycladic Art, then look up places to eat near your next stop. Suggested itineraries account for hills, heat and museum timing, so you can decide how much walking fits into the day.
