I recall someone asking do Greek Hotels have Christmas festivities and events!.....The answer is most certainly they do.... Lots of people take up this way of enjoying the Holidays..

I am visiting Athens and want a feel for where to go that pertains to Greek mythology.Of course, the Acropolis is on my list, but I wish to explore other places related to gods, goddesses, heroes, and their legendary tales as well.

For those of you who have ventured on similar quests or possess knowledge about Greek mythology's physical footprints in Athens, could you recommend:

Must-visit sites that are deeply connected to Greek mythology.
Any lesser-known locations that offer a unique insight into the myths.
Tips for making the most out of these visits (best time to go, how to avoid crowds, etc.).
Any resources (books, guides, websites) that could help deepen my understanding of the myths associated with these sites.

I’m extremely excited about this trip and looking forward to your recommendations and insights! Thanks!

Visiting Mount Lycabettus Question

I have never been to Mount Lycabettus, although I've been to Athens a handful of times - it just never came up to go here.

Here are some questions I have:

A few specific questions I have include:

What's the best time of day to visit Mount Lycabettus? Is it good at sunset?
Are there any hiking trails that you'd recommend?
How difficult is the trek up the hill? Is it suitable for beginners or those not used to hiking?
Is the funicular railway worth the ride, or is it better to walk?
Are there any facilities (like cafes or restrooms) available at the top or along the way?
Do you have any safety tips or things to watch out for?

Thanks in advance!

Athens airport question...

There's a group of us going to Athens and our flights get in the same day, but at different times.

Is there an easy spot to wait for the rest of our group outside of security, like a cafe or restaurant, or even an area with chairs to sit... I have only been to this airport once, and I don't remember any details about what happens after security.

Taking the Ferry to Mykonos?

I am planning a trip for Greece next year to Greece. I usually fly into Athens and then fly into a place like Santorini or Mykonos from there.

I plan to go to Mykonos next summer and I am kind of sick of flying.

Is the ferry situation easy from Piraeus? Is this a better option than airplanes?

Someone told me I could wait until the last minute and buy the tickets that day, but I am not sure I feel comfortable with that...

Best Shopping in Athens

My wife and I are going to Greece in a few days. We both like to shop (her more than me) but we've never actually had enough time in Athens to explore the shopping.

Where should we go?

Someone told us Monastiraki is a good choice, but are there other places? We'll have a few days to poke around.
