The lusciously pine-covered Filopappos Hill in the center of Athens has long become a favorite gathering place among the Athenians. It is also known as the “Hill of Muses”. Together with the Acropolis and Lykavittos Hill, they offer some precious green havens from the buzzing metropolis down below.
In a clear sunny day like this, you can make out a convincing view afar from the Acropolis, with Filopappos Hill, Piraeus, Saronic Bay and the Peloponnese Peninsula all within sight.
