About Athens
It is hard to believe now, but at the beginning of the 19th century, following numerous occupations and battles for control of the city, Athens was on the verge of annihilation. The development of the vibrant city we know today began in 1834, when Athens was declared capital of the kingdom of Greece. An air ticket to Athens will give you a chance to see the many museums, historical remains and beautiful public buildings that characterise Athens as a city.
Its status as capital resulted in several periods of rapid development, and today Athens is a very modern capital. Much of the city's infrastructure and public transport system underwent modernisation at the end of the nineties, and now Athens has one of most modern metro systems in the world. For getting around in Athens, you have a choice between the metro, buses, trams or trains – and of course, taxis.
