Acropolis - Tour of Acropolis of Athens - Acropolis Is Site of the Parthenon

As you carefully walk around the top of the Acropolis in Athens avoiding the many rocks and uneven steps, be sure to look to the northeast, and you will see a tree-covered hill. Lycabettus Hill (sometimes referred to as Likavitos) is the tallest hill in Athens, and can be seen easily from the top of the Acropolis. The hill is a popular tourist destination in itself and can be climbed using a funicular railway from Kolonaki.
