Athens (Greek:Αθήνα - Athína) is the largest city and capital of Greece,located in the Attica periphery of central Greece.Named after goddess Athena,Athens is one of the oldest cities in the world with a recorded history of at least 3,000 years.
Today,the Greek capital is Europe's 8th largest conurbation,a bustling and cosmopolitan metropolis with an urban population of 3.2 million people and a metropolitan population of 3.7 million people.The Athens metropolitan area is the centre of economic,financial,industrial,political and cultural life in Greece.The city is also rapidly becoming a leading business centre in the European Union.The city proper has a land area of 39 km² while the urban agglomeration of Athens spans 412 km².
Ancient Athens was a powerful city-state.Center of the arts,learning and philosophy,home of Plato's Academy and Aristotle's Lyceum,Athens was also the birthplace of Socrates,Pericles,Sophocles and many other prominent philosophers,politicians and writers of the ancient world.It is widely referred to as the cradle of Western Civilization and the birthplace of Democracy,largely due to the impact of its cultural and political achievements during the 5th and 4th centuries BC on the rest of the then known European Continent.
The classical era heritage is still evident in the city,portrayed through a number of ancient monuments and artworks,the most famous of all being the Parthenon on the Acropolis,standing as an epic landmark of western civilization.The city has also a vast variety of Roman and Byzantine monuments,as well as a small remaining number of Ottoman monuments that project the city's long history through the centuries.Modern landmarks can also be found,dating back as far as 1830 (establishment of the new,independent Greek State).The Greek Parliament (19th century) ,the Athens Trilogy (Library,University,Academy) and the new (2004) Athens Olympic Sports Complex are only some of these architectural landmarks.
Athens was the host city of the first modern-day Olympic Games in 1896 and in 2004 it welcomed the Summer Olympics back home with great success.[8]
