Discount Airfares to Athens

Athens (Greek: Αθήνα, Athína; IPA /a'θina/ ) is the capital of Greece, and of the Attica prefecture of Greece. Modern Athens is a large and cosmopolitan city; Ancient Athens was a powerful city-state and renowned center of learning. It is named after its patron goddess, Athena. Athens is located at 38° North, 23°43'34.5" East (38.000000, 23.726194).

In ancient Greek, the name of Athens was θναι-Athēnai , plural of θήν η-Athēnē, the Greek name of the goddess Athena. The city's name was used in the plural like those of Θ βαι-Thēbai (Thebes) and Μυκ ναι-Mykēnai (Mycenae) because it consisted of several parts. In the 19th century, this name was formally re-adopted as the city's name. Since the official abandonment of Katharevousa Greek in the 1970s, however, the popular form Athína has become the city's official name. See also a list of alternative names for Athens.

The metropolitan area of Athens is home to some 5 million people. Currently the city (metropolitan area) is growing eastwards across Attica (Greater Athens).
