Acropolis, Athens, Greece The Acropolis is home to an exceptional array
of incredible classical masterpieces and thousands of
years’ worth of history. The word 'Acropolis' actually translates as 'high city' due to its elevated
position above the rest of Athens.
15 minutes
Parthenon, Athens, Greece The Parthenon was originally built in the 5
th Century BCE. This incomparable temple was built to
honor the Greek Goddess of Wisdom, Athena, whom the city is named after
15 minutes
Acropolis Museum, Athens, Greece Attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors every year, the museum is rapidly becoming as famous
as
the architectural wonders that surround it. Opened to the public in 2009, the museum is home to
an incredible collection of Ancient and Classical Greek artefacts all housed in a state of the art
setting. 15 minutes
Temple of Olympian Zeus, Athens, Greece The temple took well over 600 years to complete and it stood proudly for approximately 200 years
before time and neglect began to dilapidate the building until it reached its present condition which
nonetheless evokes the temple's former grandeur. 15 minutes
Panathenaic Stadium, Athens, Greece Greece and the Olympic Game
s have a dramatically intertwined history with the fortunes of one
often affecting the fortunes of the other. This relationship can be traced back literally thousands of
years with the ancient Olympic Games dating back as far as the 7th Century BCE 15 minutes
Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, Athens, Greece It is uncertain whether there any actual remains at the site but the tribute commemorates those
who have made the ultimate sacrifice defending their nation and its principals, throughout history. 15 minutes
Syntagma Station, Athens, Greece Although its history is relatively recent compared with the rest of this ancient city, Syntagma Square
has been the central point for all of the major political movements in Athens over the last 200 years 15 minutes
Plaka, Athens, Greece Interestingly, considering Plaka is
of central importance to Athens, the origins of its name have been
lost to the ages. In fact, the area was not even known as Plaka until the Greek War of Independence
came to a close in the early stages of the 1800's.

Debería servir de guía, es sólo una acumulación de información histórica sin contacto con los lugares y monumentos que estamos viendo.

It was not easy to follow. A resume of historical facts, not a guide. Has to be improved to be called a real audioguide.

Pas mal. Je ne l'ai pas utilisé autant que je le pensais.
Intéressant pour l'Acropole et un peu pour son musée.
Ça évite de prendre une visite guidée avec une personne, ce qui est souvent une perte d'argent..
Pour le prix, ça vaut le coût.
