Greece Athens Cityscape

Please log in or sign up for free to see the GPS coordinates & weather for this photo spot

From this spot (Lycabettus Hill) you can see pretty much everything in Athens in all directions. It is the highest point in Athens (approx. 230m above sea level). This particular image shows the Church of Prophet Elias surrounded by typical Athens building.
From up there you can also have a clean shot of the Acropolis, the Panathenaic Stadium, and many other landmarks.

Photography Tips

Visit during sunrise/sunset or at night. Bring a Tele-lens with you and just enjoy the view. I visited the spot in April and it wasn't crowded. I can imagine that the spot can get very crowded during the season/summer.
