A ticket to the Acropolis including the North and South Slopes costs €20 or ₹1,500. The prices are reduced to €10 or ₹750 during winter, (from November 1 to March 31). During summer months, the sites are open daily from 8am to 8pm, and between 8am and 5pm in the winter months.

What to see and do:

1)Acropolis of Athens:

one doesn’t visit Athens without visiting Acropolis! That area was so huge that it can fit the whole city when Ancient Greece was in war. It is no doubt why Acropolis is the symbol of Athens because from Acropolis, you can basically overlook the whole city of Athens.
