Ancient Agora of Athens (Greece)

Agora in Greek stands for the marketplace or a meeting place. The Agora in ancient Greek city-states was the central public space that was the soul of the city-state. The general populace mingled and interacted in the Agora while the statesmen met for policy making. Vendors put up stalls and artists performed for the crowd. The Agora in Athens was the heart of the city, and the square had all the government buildings. The residence of state officials, and athletic and sports competitions along with philosophers spreading their wisdom all found their place at the Agora. From social activity to religious activities, recreation and upholding of justice, the Agora remained the venue for everything of note that took place in the city.

The ancient Agora of Athens is a prime example of the Greek agora and was an incredibly important place with regards to life in ancient Athens. The Agora in ancient Greece, especially the one in the city of Athens, was the center of everything; from market to elections to policy making to upholding justice. The agora was surrounded by monuments and buildings necessary to run the Athenian government. For 5000 years, the agora had always been occupied be it by commercial buildings, residential buildings, monuments or public and government buildings.

The Agora of Athens Greece went through several cycles of construction, destruction and rebuilding and remodeling. The agora hosted merchants, craftsmen, philosophers debating and propagating wisdom, policy makers and artists. After being destroyed in the Slavic invasion of 580 A.D., the place was abandoned before being redeveloped as a residential area during the Byzantine Empire up until 1834. The historical significance of the Agora is immense and is a must visit place for the ancient history enthusiasts.

    isted end to end by Vishal Thakur. It was a really an awesome experience and very smooth everywhere. Everything went very well as planned and mentioned in itinerary. Vishal - Thanks a lot for arranging this wonderful trip and coordinating with me from beginning of trip plan to end of the journey. Vishal was very much patience and very good in handling the customer and to achieve the customer utmost satisfaction and did it very well in my case. Not but not the least , TRAVEL TRIANGLE - My initial impression was bit mixed feeling to proceed with Travel Triangle for the trip (because I didnt approach through any referral, I just got it from Google with some positive reviews). But getting in touch through calls and and drafting my honeymoon plan with my travel agent Vishal my perspective is entire changed and fully satisfied. Definitely, I will consider Travel Triangle for my next International trip for sure. I am giving 5 out of 5 stars rating for the entire trip and especially for travel agent Vishal.

    Karanjain's 8 days trip to Athens

    Everything was nice and comfortable out there. Just couple of points I felt could have been better :- 1. Hotel Marina:- This Hotel is very poor hotel for us to stay. Hotel rooms were very small; they provided room with 2 single beds for a couple; toilets were very dirty; location of the hotel was ba
    d. I think you should provide a better hotel going forward. Just to mention , hotels at Myconos and Santorini were the best! We enjoyed our stay there. 2. Local Transfers:- Please have the option to include local transfers- hotel to ferry and vice versa etc. This costed us a lot and a bit of hassle. 3. Delos Tour:- Inclusions say that it includes transfers/entry tickets however we were asked to pay 12Euro each for the entry. This could have been included in the overall cost to avoid confusion. Hotels at Myconos and Santorini were too good for the location.
