Visitors and travelers are treated to breathtaking views of the Attic landscape, showcasing a perfect blend of natural beauty and the elegance of art and architecture.
Perched on a cliff nearly 72 meters above sea level, the magnificent Temple of Poseidon has been celebrated by countless scholars and authors throughout history. It is the site where Aegeas, the legendary king of Athens, leapt into the sea, lending his name to the Aegean Sea.
- Lake Vouliagmeni - Just south of town and close to the sea lies a unique geological formation that inspired the suburb’s modern name: Lake Vouliagmeni (“Sunken Lake”). This small brackish-water lake is nourished by underground currents flowing through Mount Hymettus. With a constant and pleasant water temperature of around 24º Celsius, the lake serves as a year-round spa.
