The Acropolis

The Acropolis were both the fortified citadel and state sanctuary of the ancient city of Athens. Although the great building programs of the 5th century B.C. have disturbed or covered many of the earlier remains, there is still a great deal of archaeological evidence attesting the importance of the Acropolis in all periods of time.
 

Monastiraki Market

The Monastiraki flea market is the place to be on Sunday when it seems every Athenian is here either buying or selling.
You have to get here early because after about 11am the crowd becomes huge.
There is a collection of small shops. Most of them are tourist shops with the same stuff you can  find on Adrianou street in the Plaka.

Panathinaiko Stadium

The Panathinaiko Stadium was first constructed in 330 B.C. 
At that time is was considered pleasing to the gods to hold games where the skill and strength of the athletes could be seen, and of course, in Athens, the people wanted to honour their patron goddess, Athena, with their very own games.
The Panathenean games were organized and a glorious marble stadium was constructed on a site between two green hills.
In 1896 the renaissance of the Olympic Games breathed life back into this stadium and it was rebuilt to host the first modern Olympic Games.
In 2004 Olympic games Panathinaiko Stadium will host Archery.
