Product Description Streetwise Athens Map - Laminated City Center Street Map of Athens, Greece - Folding pocket size travel map with integrated metro map This map covers the following areas: Main Athens Map 1:9,000 Piraeus Inset Map 1:21,000 Greece & the Aegean Map 1:3,300,000 Anyone who visits Greece is drawn to visit the Acropolis of Athens. It houses the Parthenon, sitting majestically on the hill, and offers terrific views of the bustling capital below. Go early or late in the day to avoid the afternoon heat. Mid-day, visit some museums or relax in a cafe with an ouzo. Athens is loaded with museums, and the National Archaeological Museum ranks among the top ten in the world. The Plaka, located downhill from the Acropolis, is one of the oldest parts of modern Athens. The old market, where philosophers Socrates and Plato once walked and talked, is known as the Ancient Agora. The Psiri, working class neighborhood by day, is the hip nightlife district. All these sites, places, hotels and metro stations are easy to locate with the STREETWISE Athens Map. For those venturing outside Athens, there is a detailed map of the port town of Piraeus, where all ferries and cruise ships make their departure for the Greek Islands. And because no trip is complete without visiting at least one Greek Island, a map of the Greek Islands with major ferry routes is also included. Our pocket size Athens map is laminated for durability and accordion folding for effortless use. The STREETWISE Athens map is one of many detailed and easy-to-read city street maps designed and published by STREETWISE .

Revised Streetwise Athens Map October 24, 2008 Barry L. Isaacs Streetwise maps are the ones I use for travel both domestic and international. I think they are great, convenient to carry, precise and easy to use. Athens has changed a great deal since the last version had come out so the newly revised map is most welcome. I will certainly be bringing mine along when I revisit Athens next year.
Very Useful October 15, 2007 Victor Ranieri 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The handy litte map was exactly what we needed in the urban center of Athens. It was clear to read, and fit right in my pocket as we walked around. With the subway information it made it so simple to get started underway to any city goal.
Great maps! April 6, 2007 H. Francis 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I've used the Streetwise Paris map several times and am looking forward to using the Athens one on my upcoming trip to Greece. The Paris map is complete, thorough, useful, etc. It folds into a small size and is waterproof for rainy days. These are great maps - try them! The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars is that the Paris map is set up somewhat confusingly - with the middle on one side and the areas both North and South of that on the other side. But it was fine once I remembered that odd placement.
Great Map August 8, 2006 K. Cornwall (Everett, WA) This handy little map has all the details needed to enjoy the tourist attractions of Athens, while being sturdy and easily transported in your daypack, or even a deep pocket. GREAT to travel with!
Useful, but needs a Metro Update May 23, 2005 J. Collins (Las Vegas, NV USA) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
This map is typical of the "Streetwise" series: Easily folded , LAMINATED (which makes it easy to write on, and keeps the map from falling apart when wet), and with handy stuff like metro stops, hotels. All landmarks the tourist needs to navigate around the town. The Athens one concentrates, naturally on the area around the Parthenon; the rest of Athens is on the other side. However, a new edition is certainly warranted as the metro now extends out to the airport, and the important hub of Syntagma Square isn't listed, and some Lat/Long lines would be great for us GPS-geeks. Overall worth taking with you.
