Greece has been on my radar for quite some time. Ever since we decided to head on over for our 2-week Greek-Island honeymoon, I fell in love. However, due to undesirable flight cancellations, we totally missed out on our day in Athens. Cue the sad face. Therefore, I asked my friend over at Leaving Cairo to provide some fun things for us to do when we do get back there someday!
I learned that you don’t have to spend a fortune in order to enjoy yourself in this Greek capital city. There’s a whole lot of free things to do in Athens (you just have to know about them!)
[divider style=”bold” title=”” text_align=””]1) Archaeological monuments on a full moon night
2) Stroll around Parliament Gardens

3) The rock of Areopagos
4) Plaka Flea Market
5) Hourly changing of the guard – Parliament
6) Take a stroll around Piraeus Harbor

7) The beaches of Athens

8) The Agora of Athens
9) A stroll around Exarchia
10) And for a special treat…

Thanks for the suggestions. Many times the free stuff is the best stuff to do in a place.
Keep up the good writing and I will promise to keep reading
